Went for a chilled saturday morning ride luckily all my atgat on, this truck turns in front of me.

Last thing i remember is slamming breaks, swerving left and thinking "oh shiiii..."

Sweet dreams

A taxi driver stopped, picked me up, took me to nearest clinic.

I woke up about 45min later.

Then i was moved to harare and from there lots of scans

Hell, glad you can smile.
That truck was a write-off long before it hit you.
Hope you heal well and you can sort a new bike with insurance.

I got off very luckily it really is a miracle.

Bruised up everywhere but only one break, fractures on right knee, probably that bumper.

Im having surgery tomorrow.

I can feel lots of pain in my neck muscles, wonder what would have happened without the neck brace!!!

I was found in the bush next to the road

Really glad you are OK, just thinking about the taxi. He is the one to the rescue..meanwhile in the sunny SA we have to dodge them.

Could have been so much worse.

Parking a bike under a truck and walking away relatively unscathed can be called a good crash.

Bly jy is ok. Lekker nuwe Bike in die vooruitsig darem 😉
