UPDATE: Chris Froome escapes serious head injuries but suffers
"pneumothorax, five broken ribs, and a lumbar vertebrae fracture" in
training crash
Premier Tech have now released a statement on Froome's condition following the crash. "Chris Froome was airlifted to hospital in Toulon yesterday afternoon following a serious training crash [no other cyclists or vehicles were involved]," the announcement begins.
[Full story at the link above]
Perhaps, even with an empty (closed) public road for a "training run",
he didn't have the required clearance on either side.
That doesn't stop other chavs from blaming drivers, of course. Not even
with regard to aplainly-reported single vehicle (ie, Broom'e chav-bike) accident.
In the comments under that story you cited, is the following:

There must be a technology that can be installed on dashboards that lets drivers know a cyclist is nearby.Too many drivers never "see" cyclists
till its too late and either kill them or grievously injure.Incredible
numbers of tragic accidents world wide year after year.Any ideas?

Has anyone got an idea as to when Brucegel is going to learn to read and understand plain English? Or when he will find the space bar on his
keyboard?
