# Aye, not bad
Cuts and bruises mainly. The walk home was more unpleasant than going off the path into the ditch filled with rocks :P

It seems that the problem with the rear axle and freewheel was actually a problem with the wheel hub, which ruined a new set of bearings in about 10 miles. In addition the front disc brake stopped working, the caliper was working fine, the pads had plenty left on them, it was grease and oil free yet it just would not stop the bike.

# Disc brakes, mate
Front and back. The only way to go.

Glad you're ok, though.
