He pulled to the left then looking over his left shoulder not knowing I was going round him and we collided together, unfortunately nothing I could do at that sort of speed. Big thank you to everyone for all support ..all the medical staff did a cracking job Went up around 25 ft and landed in the garden on someone's car."
