The roads to the windmills were very bad this morning with black ice in many places. The ice was still on the roads as we returned after 11am. I caught up with the group just after the spill. John suffered a bad cut to the back of his head, and Dave suffered cuts to his face and was complaining of rib pain. Both left in the ambulance, but were in good spirits, get well soon guys!
On a positive note, Phil commented on the amount of motorists that stopped and offered assistance. So if any are reading, many thanks for the assistance given and concern shown. Proves that the bad motorist is still in the minority. Thanks should also be expressed to the officer that attended the accident, a cyclist himself. The police suffer regular bad publicity, but he was extremely proffesional and showed genuine concern, even finding time to thank us for helping him with the traffic control, as he attended on his own.
(Maybe a letter from the club thanking him)
Hope someone posts the guys condition when its known.

BBoth John and Dave were allowed home from hospital but will be very sore today. Luckily Johns head wasn:t fractured but needed several stitches, he also has 1 broken rib and a few cracked ones. Dave has bad bruising but no broken bones. It shows the benefits of a crash hat.
