bicycle meets automobile never ends well, but banged up a little is well to the better side of the spectrum

mh otm, no cars involved,
jumper caught in front wheel at speed, no helmet. Big forehead gash, likely be carrying a decent scar for life, likewise from lip to nose (which is broken), large chip off front tooth, broken fingers, maybe torn calf muscle, shock and concussion. And lucky at that.

uuungh I will only be reading that description once
I feel like I got away relatively unscathed with two broken wrists, one of which was unnoticeable to me

what kind of jumper was he wearing, that it could get caught in the front wheel like that?

sounds horrible. i hit my face hard into the ground in a non-bike accident a few weeks ago and it hurt like absolute hell. the hard bone of your head just smacks right into the unbelievable hardness of the road and any soft tissue in the way just gets smashed right through like it isn't even there. good luck to the poor guy
