Sorry to be posting this 2 weeks after the event but I have only just got out of hospital. This was me at about 8.30 in the morning heading west on Loampit Vale. I collided with a van. Outcome: ankle broken in a couple of places, torn ligaments and various other cuts and bruises. Haven't been able to assess bike yet, but I do know that the seat post was broken in two and the bars are bent.
Thanks to the two riders who stayed with me until the ambulance arrived. One, I noticed in my haziness, was riding fixed or SS, so may be on here.
I'm off the bike for a few months now but full intend to be back on that route by Spring.
