168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Egan Bernal may have only just worked far enough through his recovery to ride outside again but on Saturday the 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Ineos Grenadiers rider will be back to pedalling indoors. Bernal will take part in a virtual mass participation ride which is being held as a gesture of thanks for the outflow of support after his 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:January training crash.

It was little more than two months ago that Bernal was in hospital facing up to surgery and a challenging recovery path after he fractured vertebrae, his right femur, right patella, several ribs and also suffered chest trauma and a punctured lung. Each recovery landmark along the way – from t🦂aking first steps, to pedalling on an exercise bike and riding outside – has been welcomed with thousands upon thousands of messages of support on his social media posts.
