This is what 'life changing' means
This is what life changing injuries really mean - https://www.gofundme.com/f/jim039s-greatest-challenge/share. I'm a friend of Jim's wife and I'm sharing this to illicit neither sympathy nor donations but to remind my fellow cyclists what can happen when a near miss isn't a miss. Of course no end of care will necessarily save you from another's inattention or stupidity but please when next your out, even on familiar roads, just take a second look at that junction, just take another look over your shoulder; you may well save yourself and your loved ones from a future full of hardship, pain and worry.
If you're new please join in and if you have questions pop them below and the forum regulars will answer as best we can.

Thats tragic - especially given his profession. I hope he gets the surgery and prosthetic he needs.
There but for the grace of god (or luck) go many of us.
