He looks comfy enough on that e-bike!
Good to hear he's working on fitness and core strength, lots of parents don't consider it with any sport but it makes a big difference.
Remember to feed him up though!

He eats about 20,000 cals per day and looks like a stick insect. I think he'd fall down a drain if he mis-timed it.... I'm exceptionally jealous.

Coaching for the boy today with Katy Curd Coaching along with a bunch of mates

Was slippery!

Some may not want to watch. Don't say I didn't warn you

Holy fook. Good job youths are made of rubber.

Is he OK?

Broken clavicle

Not so good ...
I'm not enough enough to understand what went wrong (other than the landing)
But in good old cycling fashion - is the bike okay?

Poor chap.

Looking at the landing area I imagine he's not the first or last. That edge needs blending.

Which is good
And presumably a supply of pain killers?

That's the 2nd jump, he was trying to double gap it

Ooof, that's one hell of a crash.

I hope he heals quickly.

Yoof attempting something that few others have cleared. He's not lacking in cajones, thats for sure.

He's only a little bit short, the front wheel skims the lip, the rear cases and fires him out the front door, another foot of flight and he'd have cleared it.

Next time....

Yeowchy Didn’t enjoy watching that
Tough lad that’s for sure GWS JW.

He’s fit and young and healthy so fingers crossed for a speedy recovery.


Matt Hayman won Paris-Roubaix after his broken bone enforced trainer season so maybe he can get on for some Zwift soon?

That right there is £1000 of anyones money

Bloody hell. Awesome that it's just the clavicle. Downside I guess is that cycling carries on through winter so he'll be peeved to miss more. But at least this time is was a cycling and full on incident, not tripping over at school!!

Shame about the bike

Hope he heals super fast - and is still happy when he gets back on two wheels xxxx

Big owch, hope he heals quick!
