Those broken ribs are definitely no fun. Take care Mick, and get better and back on the bike soon.

Heal fast! A coma is no joke. The fact you are able to post is a good sign. What happened to the arsehole that caused this disaster? License revoked I hope!

Too soon to know mate. I have not even left the house, or seen my bike yet. Its in the police compound. My mind is fucked,i got people come to wash and dress me, and i can barely figure out how to walk. I am told it will improve with time. I really hope it's quick, i am going nuts, sitting indoors, we got a 35c+100f + heatwave at the moment too.

You must've been banged pretty good with those injuries. Get well and I hope you will at the least have a financial windfall from the accident. (Not that that'll make you feel better).
