Dang mate, nasty spill. Were you wearing a lid?
Perhaps Pikes aren't ideal for heavy duty street/park?! How heavily damaged are your teeth? Good to see that you had plenty of people at hand to help sort you out.
All the best.

There not pikes the staunchions are wrong, not sure what they are though.

Hope your better dude, I had a faceplant when I when dh without my fullface only 3 weeks ago, got a concussion and had to get scans on my head and neck, still dont remember what happend that day, but some how i didnt break my nose or teeth, thanks god. But my face looked like someone attacked it with a cheese gratter. Hope everything heals up well.
