OUCH!!!!! Katie Archibald

[lazybloke]

Just read about Katie Archibald's "freak injury" - https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/cycling/articles/cj556zqy6n1o
So no chance of another Olympic gold at Paris; hopefully a full recovery will follow.

I've not been following the team declarations, so I don't know who the lucky reserve athlete is.

Ooooh, made me wince just reading that.

She hasn't had her troubles to seek, which is a real shame. Heart of a lion so she will be missed.

...What the heck," said Archibald.

Wow she went big with that accident. Just shows you, a trip whilst walking and that could be you.

Someone should invent garden helmets to stop these leg injuries! 😈 Seriously: I hope she recovers well.

She hasn't had the easiest of times recently.

My brother did a similar double break recently and it didn't take too long to recover after the initial ops. Shame she will miss the games though.

I made a big enough fuss when I hurt my back slightly while gardening last year.

"What the heck" indeed. Poor Katie.

Damn
came on here to say just that!

Best wishes to her though - pity we won;t see her at the Games

 

[Paulus]

I do hope we see her again at the games in 4 years time, but this is a serious injury and unfortunately could be a career ending one.
I wish her a speedy recovery.
