Champion cyclist Christina Mackenzie is finally back in the saddle more than four months after a horror collision with a car on a country road – and is eyeing up her first competition after believing she’d never ride again.
The popular cyclist was left with a devastating pelvis injury that has kept her off the region’s roads since she was hit by a car whilst out on a training ride.
Christina had been cycling along the B822, at the Kippen roundabout, shortly after 5pm on September 27 last year when a black car which was towing a trailer hit her, leaving her lying by the roadside in agony.
