Default whooops not ment to do that PMSL

was riding me motorbike last night enjoying meself cus i just bought it the night before and was the first outing of many ( i had hoped ) this summer.

so im riding along doing 40-45mph ( wearing a helmet thank fook ) when the gate i had just come though decides to close before my very eyes with a little help from some wind
so i bailed off the bike deciding i was going to hit something wotever and the bike would only make it worse.
so i proceed to hit the gate side on ( body was in a jumping angle at a guess 40-50 degrees ) and hit the edge of the gate side on side on and it didnt move at all
heard a crack, then ended up on the floor rolled round for a bit in a puddle trying to get some air when another bigger crake is heard then i gasped some air ( hooorahh ) so i waddle off to get a cup off tea before the A&E visit. then when to hospital

in total two broken ribs severe bruising to my shoulder, arm, cheast, short of breath and i might get a collapesed lung yet

six weeks minimum of nothing not happy

I had a nasty encounter with a gate on my mountain bike recently. Riding along a trail in the woods that i've riden loads before, came round a downhill bend and there was a gate there (recently put up)...I had no choice but to crash into it and vault over the fence and down the hill

3 broken ribs, fractured wrist and lots of bruises.

Totally buggered my front wheel as well

But, it's only fun until somebody falls off. Then its hilarious
