Climbed back on the bike today for the first time since the crash - my body seems to be healing reasonably but my confidence is shot. Couldn't get any rhythm at all in the first 5km or so, and had a big scare on a roundabout after about 2km (not really a dangerous situation, just didn't have the confidence to take it at the same speed as I was previously).

Fortunately I encountered a cement truck in my lane in Surfers Paradise, I changed lanes and accelerated past it. That felt good, and things started to improve from there. I'm still not cornering at all confidently (which is strange because that wasn't what I was doing when I crashed).
