Bradley Wiggins And Coach Shane Sutton Hurt

Written By Unknown on Kamis, 08 November 2012 | 22.11

Shane Sutton, head coach of the GB cycling team, has been taken to hospital after a cycle crash near Manchester.

British Cycling confirmed: "Shane has suffered bruising and bleeding on the brain. He is set to undergo more tests and is likely to stay in hospital for the next few days."

Hours earlier, on Wednesday evening, Olympic cycling hero Bradley Wiggins was himself in an accident. It involved a van and happened near his home in Eccleston, between Preston and Wigan in Lancashire.

He suffered a broken rib and dislocated finger or thumb. He has now left hospital.

Police are to question the driver of a white Vauxhall Astra Envoy van, a local woman, who was uninjured in the collision at a petrol station in Wrightington.

Mr Sutton was involved in an accident with a Peugeot 206 just before 9am on the A6 near Levenshulme in Manchester.

Both riders had been wearing cycle helmets.

A spokesperson for British Cycling said: "It is extremely rare that our riders and coaches are hurt while out cycling on the road, even rarer that two incidents should occur in a short space of time, and we wish Shane and Bradley a speedy recovery.

"Cycling is not an intrinsically dangerous activity but there is much more to be done to improve conditions for cyclists on the roads.

"British Cycling is calling on the government to put cycling at the heart of transport policy to ensure that cycle safety is built into the design of all new roads, junctions and transport projects, rather than being an afterthought."
