Now my wrist is makes clicking sounds as it rotates 45 degrees, clicks again when I rotate back. Not sure what to do, it's been 8 weeks and bone must have healed too much by now for any easy surgical adjustment. Maybe it's a screw slightly sticking out into a bone or something, or maybe an...

Drivers worry me far more than the boys in blue! I have a mind to add more lights! I might install this 20W motorbike headlight, so it's claimed to be, to my bike as soon as I can. I'll risk my broken but 8 week plated and healed wrist by dragging my bike up the stairs to inspect badger...

My camera's microphone is awful, so please do increase the volume of your viewing device, it's a low volume which my camera produces. It's also in a waterproof case. My helmet camera distorts the impression of distance. I would use the camera distortion removal feature, but then the view...

I agree, the Honit 140db is ace! The third idiot in this video could have ran me over and killed me... BMW started to overtake while coming out of a bend right at me, stopped his maneuver last possible moment screeching his tyres. Horn wouldn't have helped, my yellow hiviz jersey did. I was...

That might be the lightest version of the Dahon Helios. It's also on Gumtree https://www.gumtree.com/p/bicycles/dahon-helios-xl-lightweight-folding-bike-/1422788245

Thanks, I might try that. There's lots of comfrey growing around here.

How did your ulna break exactly? Did you sue for damages? I'd sue if the badger had any money (and was alive, which is unknown). Do you have any sign of artritis in that wrist? That's the big worry for me, but I believe it depends on the break itself, how it heals, and may be more likely if...

Nealh also broke his wrist (in a separate accident). Ironically I was injured by a Gaulish god of healing, which is most troubling and makes no sense. An extract from badger nadgers was used for ceremonial purposes or something.: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moritasgus...

The reported bleed in the brain may indicate that he wasn't wearing a helmet.

I didn't have any time to see the badger, despite the way the video looks, I was going slow (wide-ange action camera lens). There was no time, it jumped out of a hole in a hedge which was right up against the road. I couldn't have avoided it. A brighter headlamp wouldn't have helped - no...

Thank you, I'll look into it.

Where are badgers when you need them?

Those things appear to be very unstable. Here's one I witnessed, he toppled over for no apparent reason. Didn't even collide with a badger:

One armed cycling is tempting, but I'd likely fall off! Think I'd be in agony holding on with my left wrist, tendons are sharply painful doing anything as is. Swelling, applying frozen peas, ibuorofen gel and pills. This wrist will heal to superhuman levels of strength I'm sure. Had a phone...

10 weeks is a long time in a cast! I wanted to tear the thing off after just 5. I think if they reinforce with metal, it might take less time to heal. Theoretically, that wrist should be stronger than the other, everyone I've spoken to who have had broken wrists say it's stronger after the...

Are you a Medical Herbalist? That was the official line from the National Institute of Medical Herbalists for many years, but even they've changed their tune: https://nimh.org.uk/news-articles/herbal-medicine-and-the-coronavirus/

Like when they fall apart at the accounting on Dragon's Den? I only did a quick calc = 9,000 miles. Less, if there are are more badgers... (I'll be lucky if my battery lasts that long)

I've heard of that being recommended for ebike batteries which have been in storage at a very low charge for a long time. I wouldn't do it.

Assuming no new battery necessary over 5 years- about 25p per mile, including the cost of bike, conversion and any object I had to buy because I restarted cycling: clothing, equipment, non-electric bike parts and upgrades, wrist splints etc. etc. etc. it never ends!
