    Both tibias, both fibias and right femur, 9 ribs, jaw, skull above right
    eye, nose, cheekbone, both shoulder blades, arm, 2 fingers.

    I slid through 180 degrees on a corner at about 50, momentarily parted
    company with the bike, then it caught up with me and shunted me
    backwards through a solid oak pub door. I was wearing an open face lid -
    something I'll never do again as part of the bike caught me right in the
    face. As it was 1981 I hadn't discovered things like armoured leathers
    either, I was wearing jeans, Doc Martins and a lightweight cotton
    jacket.

  2. 1 broken bone in my hand (from punching a door).

    Other than that - nothing.

    Abusive parents are a horrible thing.

    Heh, the hospital wondered about that too. It was just me being a
    clumsy **** though. First one was falling out of bed[1], second was
    falling down the stairs.

    [1] Honest!

    You're wrong. People who ride around in shorts tend to be a bit more
    careful when they're riding than they would if they were wearing a
    load of protective shit.

    That's taking competitiveness to extremes.

    If you consider 100 mph wheelies on the freeway a bit more careful I'll
    agree with you.
