Thank you, Ryan. I had one nice bruise but nothing at all bothersome... the bike has a bent fork and a bent top tube, so while I still have the frame hanging in my shed, I kind of doubt it will ever see road again. What a great, great ride it was. Just about all of the components in the photo are now hanging on a same-year Bianchi Limited. Some will be making their way to a '74 Motobecane Grand Record 650b build I am (very slowly) working on.
And yikes!! Sorry to hear it. I hope you heal quickly and are back rolling soon.
