Hope for the best, it doesnt sound good tho. Been hearing a lot of bicycle accidents lately, even more so than normal.

Also what was a motorcycle racer doing training on a bicycle? It must be a 2 wheel thing because I also ride a motorcycle. I dont have a car license either and I never will.

Lots of motorbike racers train on bicycles.
Troy Bayliss is a very fit road cyclist.
Jamie Witham, Leon Haslam, Chris Walker train on MTBs, to name a few.

Guy Martin is a very keen cyclist.

The best of luck to Nicky. I hope he gets well.

This, and F1 drivers.

Yeah loads of them train on bicycles, also Sylvain Guintolli, Shane Byrne and Christian Iddon all notable cyclists.

Changing the subject somewhat, I heard this morning on Radio 2 that Shaun Ryder (Happy Mondays Blake Grape) is also a keen cyclist! Who'd have thought it!

Shaun Ryder, years of being a Manc 'Scally' means a bike is 2nd nature to him.

Not good news I'm afraid
Nicky passed away, very sad.
