Egan Bernal discharged from hospital

Great news keep emerging from Colombia as Egan Bernal today completes a very meaningful step on the recovery from his recent life-threatening crash.

13 days is how long Egan Bernal has been in the hospital after a serious accident whilst on a team training camp on home roads. The Colombian rider hit a bus whilst descending alongside his teammates and ended up with an extensive list of injuries and a "95% chance of being paralyzed". Seven surgeries later, the majority to stabilize his column, his recovery from the accident is seemingly the best case scenario, to a point where today he was photographed standing on his own feet.
