Let’s just clear this one up: No, I wasn’t filming and that’s not why I crashed.

[@stephenfogarty5951]

Speedy recovery Juliet…. keep smiling 😊 ps always enjoy watching your posts 🚴💋

[@Radisgris]

So nice to hear from you! Hope you will feel better soon. One day at a time! 😊

[@Grandadgreyhair]

Good luck with your recovery you will come back stronger

[@davidwhyte4348]

There is one thing I’ve learned in life in the last 38 years I’ve been alive bad things always happen when you least expect it and you always think what if I hadn’t done that or this but it doesn’t really matter what matters is the way you push through it and make yourself mentally stronger than before, it’s really true what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger, and I know you will need time to build your confidence back but you really will be a stronger person from this in the future, you are a inspiration to me and others , take it easy and rest then when you are ready we will be waiting for your next chapter , wish you a speedy recovery

[@JulietElliottsChannel]

Thank you so much. Absolutely, I spent a lot of time questioning myself and what happened, wondering if I did this wrong, that wrong, had too much tyre pressure etc. More likely just bad luck.

[@swites]

@@JulietElliottsChannel Yeah often its just wrong place wrong time, or a rock or rut just gets you unexpectedly and its all over. 1 cm here or there and you'd have been fine. After my bad crash (6months of work etc) I now look back at it as a positive experience which now I'm thankful for. Sounds weird I know! But met new people and gave me a bit of a kick up the ar$e to get my life in order which was needed. Anyway all the best for your recovery! In a few months or so it'll all be in the rear view mirror :)

[@fourbyforester]

We, human beings, aren't always "guilty" of what happens to us. I've been here twice. Almost died twice in crashes I could not have anticipated either. I was really good on longboards, hence the second time it happened again. It is as if nature tried to tell me: stop what you are doing. Your mission is something different. Although I'm still recovering, lucky me came out stronger than ever. Feel almost 50 y younger now than when my last crash happened. Hope you recover well and soon. Thank you so much for showing the beautiful nature of La Palma. And the interesting ride. I noticed your downwards pointing handle bar. Luckily all living creatures have healing power built within. So you'll be fine if you listen well to what your body is telling you.

[@sascha1778]

[@TriathlonDan]

Really sorry to see this Juliet, good that you're home now. I recently rode some of the Grangruanche route with a friend, who crashed and broke his hip in Gran Canaria. He was "only" in hospital for just under a week, but that felt like an eternity so I can imagine how difficult double that would have been. Hope you heal up fast

[@RachelSinclair-z7b]

Oh no! Take it easy and rest up. There will be time for other adventures once you have recovered. Wishing you a speedy recovery.

[@CanyonWanderer]

I saw it on your insta, what an absolute bummer. I hope you are recovering well. Thanks for sharing what you had recorded up to that point anyway! Having been to La Palma decades ago by car, also around the Caldera and up to the observatories I was really curious about the cycling. So many thanks for the impression. Wishing you a good recovery, now at home, may the cat(s) speed your recovery. Always loving your content Juliet!

Get well soon. Crashes are part of biking. Usually they aren’t this bad but there’s been quite a few high profile crashes this year and I just hope you all heal quickly.

[@andrerodriguez7603]

Hi Juliet, love your mountain bike, just beautiful. I’m from Southern California, and started XC MTB racing in the 90’s in my thirties. Your Marin reminds me of the old days. Oh, no I was writing before I finished your video. I hope you recover quickly. I’m 68 and a couple of months ago, I was riding home on my road bike. I started up on a green light from red, and a car cut me off. I hit him, flipped, and dislocated my left shoulder and spent 4 days in the hospital, so I feel your pain. Three months later, still doing PT. Still hurts trying to get my range of motion back. I hope you recover quickly. Accidents happen in the blink of an eye. I feel sorry for your pain. 😢

[@Ubiets]

Hope you have a speedy recovery! 🚴

No Nepal for me, wasn’t meant to be there right now. One of the things I thought to myself whilst in hospital was ‘I’m glad this happened here, rather than there.’

[@brotherfranciz]

Just saw your Strava and came straight here! I feel for you! I actually crashed two days into my 2-week holiday trip to watch the Tour de France this year! The titanium bike I hired was in perfect condition even after the crash... but me... Not so much... Luckily it was just a standard "went too fast around a blind bend in the road and slid off the gravelly road kerb", so nowhere near your injuries - I just had a prosciutto-looking thigh and elbow haha. I still managed to climb (extremely slowly and gritting through the pain) up Hautacam, Tourmalet and Ventoux later in my holiday (all on different days though, with shorter rides or rest days in between, including multiple painful changes of the wound dressings, ouchy...). I know how you feel, as I was beating myself up as well, thinking what I did wrong, what I could have done differently, all the "what if" questions... So don't beat yourself up, life happens and there will always be downs, but there will also always be ups! Rest up and you should start planning for your next ride as that will lift you up and motivate you! All the best!

[@andygoldensixties4201]

so sorry for your trouble, Juliet, don't feel guilty, this is what can happen ANY time to us cyclists. I have broken my bones twice, than I recovered and got back to pedal. The same I'm sure is going to be for you. Both times my accidents happened because I was not fully focused, that is the first lesson I got out of it. The second is that if you are really always totally focused, you would spoil much of our beloved sport, the sensation to be free and happy to ride, the feeling that life has moments of peculiar joy to offer. I'm waiting to see you back on the road with your lovely smile.

[@Cycle9568]

Crashing sucks! Hope that you are ok. Sometimes crashes sneak up on us. My last crash on my road bike was a low side. Front end pushed away on something and I ended up on the deck HARD. Resulted in a broken femur and humerus.
