My partner, a recent convert to cycling fell off her bike about 2 weeks ago, nasty arm and leg gash plus bruising to her shoulder and knee. She was more pleased that the bike was ok and more worried that I'd try and stop her cycling again than her injuries. I was more worried by her cycling home on it as her asthma kicked in due to the shock of the fall and the sun setting temperature dropping thing. She does know she can get a taxi or tube and carries enough money/Oyster enough to do that.
Her accident was caused by grit on a towpath somewhere, and there was a nice man who checked if she was ok. She was more worried about his dog slobbering on her, so she figured after a basic "body parts check" that she must be ok.
She's obtained a better tyre for her good bike and been out shopping on the folder a few times, so I figure she must be okay. She now has an "in emergency" leaflet in her wallet cos I can't be contacted by phone and her family are idiots.
I hope you recover soonest and that any bruising is as minor as possible.
