No broken bones but a few scrapes, brush burns and a split helmet. The next day I could not move. felt like a full body sprain. I was laid up for about a week and a half. Hope you feel better.

Mine was being struck in the rear wheel by a stupid driver at about 50mph who "didn't see me." Tumbled for a good 30 or so yards and bounced off a curb and was stopped by a light pole. Fully armored gear likely saved me a lot of damage. I was still banged up, but i walked away with nothing broken. Stiff as a board for a solid 2 weeks lol.
