Not too good. I posted some pics of my leg in the Aust/NZ forum.
My leg comes out of plaster tomorrow, so hopefully I can start walking soon. It now has a titanium rod, two plates and a dozen screws in it, but I can't complain, I am just happy I still have my foot. Thank you Alpinestars.

I have not seen my bike since the accident. I was told by the insurance company it was a write off, but I want it back because I have ordered a bunch of parts from the UK, so I had planned to remove most of what I dare say was damaged anyway.

Just read your post there. If anyone can cheer you up, Ozzy can. 8) I hope you will be able to ride again soon.

Sounds like your leg's more customised than my bike! ;)

sorry to hear about the accident, here's hoping you're back on two wheels real soon!
Don't give up.

Not now, not soon, not after being continually knocked down.

If you never give up, you can never truly fail.

Welcome aboard! Once your healing is done, you can start adjusting to a ride while using your new bionic leg - we'll call you the "Six Million Dollar Rider". Enjoy the forums.

Cheers,
Loonette
