After making a remarkable recovery from a training ride crash which nearly killed him, Egan Bernal is returning to professional bike racing at the Tour of Denmark tomorrow.
In January the 25-year-old crashed into a parked bus at high speed close to his home in the Colombian capital Bogota. The 2019 Tour de France champion was left with a swathe of injuries, including a broken leg and kneecap, a collapsed lung and extensive damage to his back.
After a remarkable recovery Bernal is returning to racing at the Tour of Denmark, starting on Tuesday, covering 475 miles of racing over five stages in as many days.
