Hey all,
I had an accident last summer when a car drove into me and left me with broken bones. I've been looking forward for ages about getting back on the bike, but now that I've started riding again I've found my confidence has been ripped to shreds. I keep shitting myself every time a car goes past. I do about 10-15km and then I have to stop as my nerves won't allow me to carry on.
How do you guys/gals get over accidents? I've looked at the bikeabilty website but that seems to be aimed at kids? Would seeing a psychologist help at all?
