Broadcaster Mike Puru is home from hospital and planning to be back on his bike soon - even though his worried mum wants him to get rid of it
29 June 2019
Mr Puru was discharged from Auckland City Hospital late this afternoon, almost two days after he was found unconscious next to his bike by passersby.
He doesn't remember anything after leaving work on Thursday evening, including where the crash occurred, but was grateful to those who helped, and that he was wearing a helmet.
Mr Puru has been treated for a broken rib and concussion and is still feeling battered about, but expects to make a full recovery thanks to the crash helmet he credits with saving his life.
He says his Mum wants him to get rid of his bike, but he thinks she doesn't realise how important a bike is in Auckland.
