'Maybe I’m a super hero' - Tour de France rider on his miracle recovery from collarbone fracture two weeks before the start

Jonas Abrahamsen.

Norway’s Jonas Abrahamsen of Uno-X Mobility is a miracle man. Just over ten days ago, the 29-year-old fell heavily on stage one of the Baloise Belgium Tour which left him with a broken collarbone, an injury which could typically see a rider off the bike for months.

However, Abrahamsen was surprisingly given the all-clear to start the Tour de France on Saturday after just nine days of recovery time, having already been initially named as part of the Uno-X team when the crash in Belgium occurred.
