Not too bad really; I was going round a blind corner on my bike (maybe a bit fast) and a car came round wide. It scared the shiat out of me so I pulled the bike back upright just in time for the corner to tighten up on me. I hit the soft verge, the bike stopped dead and I did a spectacular somersault over the bars into a bed of stinging nettles.
Luckily I was wearing full gear so I had no exposed skin at all, and only did about £40 of damage to my crappy little 125.
My fault completely though; I was very tired and distracted and so didn't react correctly in a bad situation. I think much more carefully now about whether I really need to ride if I'm tired.
