Just thought I would update this and once again say thanks for all the thoughts and kind regards
Several people had asked to see photos, not wanting to scare you with grim pictures of blood and missing teeth I resisted posting anything beyond a picture of my dearly departed bike
Well having now been signed off from the hospital and generally feeling a whole lot better I thought you might like to see my last CT scan. I was very impressed with the quality of the image and also the way they can now show you almost a 3D X-ray, I guess all our taxes pay for something
All I can say is anybody that rides a bike without a helmet must be a f*ckin idiot ~ as the specialist said "I dodged a silver bullet with this one"
