The rumours have been scotched:

Everyone just calm the F down. I can account for the whereabouts of@michellecound at 6pm GMT last night! @ingohilder@BarryMcCallum

He is out. Just a few bruises in the end.

"He suffered minor injuries, including a bruised hand and ribs, and was kept at the Royal Preston Hospital overnight as a precaution."

From velonews:

“I would also like to apologize for the gesture that I made when I arrived home yesterday afternoon. I was tired, in a lot of pain, and just wanted to get inside, but I shouldn’t have reacted the way I did. I’m sorry for that."

Eish!

 

From velonews:

Team Sky’s head coach Shane Sutton was also knocked off his bike on Thursday morning and taken to hospital, having suffered a fractured cheekbone and bleeding in the brain.

A spokesperson for British Cycling said: “Shane is making steady progress but is likely to remain in hospital for one more day under observation.

“He has fractured his cheekbone which will require surgery in due course. He, like Bradley, is expected to make a complete recovery and will be back in work shortly,” the statement read.

To the driver

 

Are you serious? Good on the driver for hitting a cyclist? Not a smart comment.
