It's good to see you posting here and with sense of humour clearly unscathed.

That finger looks a bit of a mess. Good job we can't see you face. GWS!

 I must say a big up for my Camera bag a Lowepro slingshot 200, after flying over the bonnet and rolling along the road with it strapped to my back my Canon 400D and lense are still intact  :thumbsup:

Eek, sounds like you were lucky not to have worse injuries. Head on at 20mph  :o We have a survivor!

I'd get that checked independently, although the photo of the hand looks OK.

Aïe! Keep healing up Steve!  I'm surprised we didn't here the impact from here.

It's amazing how things in bags can survive crashes; in my case, I was glad the yoghurt stayed in its pots; in your case, I bet you're relieved about the camera.

That's helluva recommendation for a camera bag.    :)

Wishing you a speedy recovery Mr FWN, and hopefully a nice shiny new piece of bicycle exotica courtesy of chummies insurance.

his car looked as bad as my hand

Result!

I'm sure it hurts less if you leave expensive damage.

At least, I certainly felt much better when I saw a photo of the car that had driven into me.

Get well soon etc.
