45mph? That's a tough bike!

Nice work Sir....can hardly tell it's been through what it's been through...

It’s cosmetic with her, re the op, there is no guarantee it will work and she may still have the lump. If she doesn’t have the op though there is no chance the lump will go. I feel for her all this happened 3 days before her 19th birthday. She was wearing her new helmet, that we bought her, I have spent all day getting the superficial scratches off it and ordered her a new visor. Also she had her A2 test booked for November and has had to postpone it. The Dear Maid is not a happy bunny at the moment. . Should get her bike back together tomorrow for her so that is something.

Update for Shadow, as she had a trip to the fracture clinic yesterday. Needs to have an operation to sort her shoulder or live with the unsightly lump she now has. She has to go back in two weeks with her decision and they will take it from there. She knows my opinion, have it fixe,d but I am not going to badger her being a teenager she will kick back and not do what I say. She is pretty smart and will see its in her own interest to have it done but it has to be her idea so I will keep quiet.

It was lovely, stick to your baked beans

Shadow is home and safe in and a fair bit of pain but she will be fine in time, she will learn. In two years and 20,000 miles she has been down twice, her fault, and knocked off once, not her fault. I know I went down a few times at her age through being young and reckless so I am not too quick to judge her. I do trust her though she is good on a bike but still just 19 and thinks she is bullet proof.
