Just back from the hospital where they've stitched my nose back together (hurrah!) - although it's not going to be the same shape ever again (er..Hurrah!). I also have a bruise on the side of my head which looks exacle lke the inside of my (fucked) helmet. I know using 'fucked' and 'helmet' is asking for trouble amongst this company, but what the hell.
Many many thanks for the good wishes and get well soons, also to my fellow Tweed Runners who (like all good gentlemen should be) were calm and competent in a crisis. thanks also Rapha for organising the event, to Jacqui and Ted at Tweed Run for letting someone who should still be riding with stabilizers on to team, and to Simon for offering to replace my slightly frayed (completely FUBAR) kit. Customer for life methinks. Also to everyone else who stopped to help - restores your faith in human nature.
I'll post a photo of my fucked-up face when I can work out how, for all of those wanting blood and suffering. Think Jimmy Casper on the Koppenburg - without the skill and professional contract - obviously.
Matt.
