Hope you are not too badly bruised, RICE is the best advice, and plenty of ibuprofen.
Shame about the bike, but glad you seem to be in one piece.
I hope I was not too bossy or officious, just wanted the driver to be fully aware he was not going to get away with it and to make sure you had the phone numbers for myself and the other witness. Must say she was great, she was on the phone before anyone else. A great reminder that the pedestrian public can be so supportive (and not just leaping out in front of me as is there general tendency on that road).
I ride down HSK everyday, and am constantly amazed at the chaos I witness there. I am sure that some of the people there feel they have a financial shield that enables them to ignore the rules of the road as they can buy legal rerpesentation instead.
