Your not the only one iggy, about a month ago I did the same and me being a H&S man. I spun the wheel checking the brakes weren't sticking then for some reason stuck my finger in the rotor as I saw a bent spoke, the father in law laughed his head off I wasn't cut straight down to the first kknukle

Yikes. Looks a little bit painful. I've been told to use a hammer, WD40 and gaffer tape but never my finger, to fix my bike that is !!!! Hope it gets better soon

Poof! That's a scratch, next time don't bother posting unless there is at least a few stitches! I have wasted precious time in my short existence reading this post hoping it would shock or inspire me to get gnarly and get a scar!  |

I guess you didn't require our services, then I didn't want to go to the doctors but the 'boss' made me go, I was happy with some savlon and old insulation tape! Tim - you wish! |

Also don't lean the front wheel of your bike against your leg whilst opening a gate after hammering your brakes on the descent seconds before. Extra marks if you can recognise the make of rotor.  |

;D took a big lump of flesh out of the side of my finger, big spray of blood up the wall and a quick dash to casualty.
Hope it heals quick Iggy
