That looks very painful. Hope there is not too much damage to you (or the car) and you make a quick p recovery.

Ta, I actually stayed on the bike but my toes a bit of a mess-guy behind her had a dashcam which captured it all & a bike copper was following me through the traffic, she's facing a careless driving charge!

Hope the bikes relatively unscathed Rob...........

Have you got yourself a small bell so you can summon Mrs B when you require a cuppa and chocolate hobnob while recuperating 8) .........You may need to be back in XRay to see if you can see said bell if you push your luck :rofl:

Let's hope nothings broken and your home soon.

I bet that's going to throb later on - looks nasty! Hope you recover quickly. Not good that it's happened but lucky that the driver responsible got nicked - who said there's never a copper around when you need one!

I can't even figure out what's going on with your toe. What a mess!

Glad it's nothing worse though - and you were lucky with the dashcam/bobbycycle. :)

I'm home now, toes broken & also burst all the way down onto my foot, back in hospital tomorrow when hopefully the swellings gone down a bit so they can scrub it & stitch it back together.
I'm having a medicinal whisky now :P

Bikes unmarked apart from snapped gear lever (I think I broke it with my toe) I stayed on it!
It hurt a bit when I pushed it home though!
