Damn. This sounds similar to Erik's crash when he broke his collar bone back in 07... though he was doing 100+ racing. He didn't require surgery and have a very small lump. Very lucky IMO.

Hell it was all good. I got it out of the ditch and rode it 25 miles to the next town...

Seems like if the bike is ridable then the rider is not. And if the rider is good, the bike isn't.
