Hope you get it all sorted soon. It is a sad shame there are idiots on the road that just dont care especially when in control of such a heavy thing as a truck. Glad you are ok. All the best for a speedy recovery and back on the road soon 8-) 8-).

Soft tissue damage to knee means injury. Surely you should inform police.
Thought it was a crime not to inform police of an injury accident - especially for him.. ;)
I thought so too.Quote:

Sorry to hear it, there are some right arrogant tw@ts around, hope you feel better soon :)
Wishing you a speedy recovery
Oh Karen, I'm glad you're ok, if a bit shaken. I'm sick and tired of the knobs we have to deal with these days. City riding isn't a pleasure anymore. I used to enjoy leaving all the suckers in the queue as I filtered past. These days, they're all out to get you/haven't seen you/busy on the mobile phone/can't be arsed to indicate/too busy shipping drugs/chatting with their mates in the car/fleeing a crime scene/unaware there's a world beyond the end of their bonnet... >:(
:o glad your ok, take it easy and hope the moron gets what he deserves
Sorry to hear about all the hassle, but the main thing is that you are (mainly) intact.
Glad you're ok
Was the driver English??
Yes the driver was English, driving a truck for a Somerset haulage firm.
I am very happy that I got up and walked away from it... tbh I was more upset about the damage to my bike than to my knee - I wept as I got down on the road to retrieve my footpeg that had sheared off, along with my clutch lever and mirror :'( :'( :'( :'( :'(
To see my lovely shiny new bike that I was so proud of, lying in the road in bits was just too much for me :'( :'( :'(
Insurance will hopefully ensure that it's mended and back with me soon. I have a loaner bike arriving on Saturday morning and I need to ensure I get straight back in the saddle, even if it means I have my knee strapped up! :)
