I hurt in new places, *sigh*.
Right, back pedal (ha! If only I could have done). Monday morning, cycling to work, got knocked off my bike by a numpty turning left across me. Cue my hurling over the front of her car onto the road, although thankfully neither of us were going fast. Landed on my left side so have a few grazes and lots of bruising, but no head injury as I was wearing a helmet.
However, a couple of days on and although the pain in my arm and hip has gone, the bruise on my thigh is growing (my goodness, but it's a wonderful shade of purple!) and now the bottom of my rib cage is starting to feel tender on both sides. Maybe I hit the handlebars as I went over, who knows? All I do know is that having a road traffic accident (as I am officially logged with the police) is not a good way to get a couple of days off work.
And yes, I apologise to anyone who is worrying about me (especially my mother!)
