I was the guy with the new bike, now I'm the guy with the pile of ruined steel in his garden.
Dr said I'm fine, just scrapes and bruises. Going to be a huge one on my right upper arm though.
Got a call just now from the woman, she said she will pay whatever it takes. She said she has a 400 pound excess on her car insurance and would rather give me 400 than put a claim in. I stupidly told her it couldn't come to more than 220 but that I would look at the bike tonight. Scouring the for sale section for something to start again with.
