Badly grazed - thigh swollen massively, bike ok, I'm out for a while. In lots of pain.
Seriously thinking of giving this all up. I've had enough.

She rushed off too quickly and I was in pain.
The shoulder has grazing, knee and right leg grazed as is elbow. Got a massive swelling bruise on the thigh, which is bleeding under the skin.

I've got Ice on the swelling, it's enormous and feels nearly solid to the touch.
With any luck ill be recovered quickly. I've got antibiotics to kill off any infection. And eventually hope to be back on the bike.

A bell, rung 20-30 metres away will suffice for 80-90%
