And it jolly well hurts.
10 stitches on a gash which exposed a chipped elbow and monstrously bruised buttocks.
Luckily the bus that was behind me as I spun out of control was far enough behind to see me and stop.
Thanks to the pedestrians who helped me off the road.
I cycled the mile or so home, dripping blood all the way and then my wife kindly drove me to the Whittington where they were superb.
My cycling jersey was ruined but its quality certainly saved me from further abrasions.
No cycling this weekend.
