Rabbit, I've just skimmed all 8 pages, and you are up there with the best contenders  :thumbsup:

I have lost this game, fair and square. I can't ride at all now and never suffered more than a trivial graze or a big bruise.
There must be advantage to being the lanterne rouge.

Happened five weeks ago. Whopping great cast was only on for a few days and only broke some bones in my hand. Went out cycling this morning so healing fine. I'm also back to playing bass and have pretty good movement although the pinky hurts a bit after a while.

Craniotomy scar after an incident.  It looked rather worse when there were three dozen metal staples holding everything together.  Now I have this pale question mark on my scalp.

I feel a bit sick now. I've got a corker from a few years ago. Will find it out later and scan it in (pre-digital photos)
