Barry Posted June 16 Share Found this article on Sky. A helmet is the most important piece of equipment you can buy never buy cheep or try cut corners on safety equipment. https://news.sky.com/story/gordon-ramsay-lucky-to-be-alive-after-bike-accident-13153706 Edited June 16 by Barry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaGearA Posted June 16 Share Clebs like over exaggerating things like bike falls when in reality his wheel probably slipped and he skid a meter or two. Then the media blow it up even bigger to get some cheap engagement. And then. suddenly cycling is dangerous in the media for 2 hours. Simon obviously had a very bad accident but also probably shouldn't have been on that thing. Gordon probably could have rubbed some dirt on it and had a laugh with the group he was riding with. My helmet is due in Oct and this won't change how i go about my safety Barry 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Frana he has 1 year on me 😫 if it's not the fridge door then it's the coffee table or that stupid little foot under the couch.

V18 Posted June 16 Share Saw this last night. Expecting the usual graze. Then the grimace monster tattoo reveal... This is a tough oomie! Maybe he's on Xarelto or Plavix and it looks worse than it is. I suspect he's just hardcore. mazambaan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And lots of organs in that area to take even more of a hit. Barry 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dave303e Posted June 18 Share He has a 3:30 marathon so he is a fairly competent athlete. I was reading a list of celebrities marathon times a few weeks back and he was fairly high on the list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ycowley Posted June 19 Share What I find a bity strange ion this fall is that he has a massive amount of bruising on his torso as well as helmet damage but no visible signs of any scratches or road rash ChrisF 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
