Fortunately, the injuries are not life-threatening. Nor will the cycling career of the Tour de France and Olympic champion be in jeopardy. He is expected to make a full recovery.

That would be like doing a cannonball from the 1m diving board landing smack dab on Michael Phelps’ back. What bad luck!

Shane Sutton (British Cycling coach) was apparently also involved in a collision today and suffered a head injury. Don’t know the extent of it yet. Scary stuff.

Oowwwwwwwwwwch.

My ribs aren’t broken but I had a fall a couple days ago and I still end up stifling every potential sneeze because of the pain.
