Der kolumbianische Radprofi Egan Bernal trainiert nur 24 Tage nach seinem schweren Sturz bereits wieder auf einem Heimtrainer.
Just 24 days after his serious crash, former Tour de France winner Egan Bernal is back on his bike.
The 25-year-old posted a video on Instagram showing him on an exercise bike. "Never let anyone tell you that you can't do something," the Colombian wrote. Bernal sits on the machine as if on a recumbent bike, holding on to handles on the sides of the seat with both hands.
Bernal had crashed his time trial bike into a stationary bus during training in his home country. The Giro winner suffered almost 20 broken bones, including eleven ribs, two vertebrae, a femur and a kneecap. Both lungs were also perforated. Bernal himself had put his chances of not being paraplegic at just five per cent.
