[@CycoWarriorx]

[@A_AAA232]

[@GiorgioCoppolaCycling]

Thanks mate and plenty of cakes on the agenda to aid the recovery 🤔😂

[@paulhamblett7791]

Speedy recovery Giorgio... Welcome back to Zwift though!! :):) silver lining... :)

[@GiorgioCoppolaCycling]

Thanks Paul and yes lots of zwift coming up 😅

[@paulhamblett7791]

@@GiorgioCoppolaCycling maybe you can start project “Sunday am 100 miler” again?? That’s a fun ride... 🙄🙈

[@GiorgioCoppolaCycling]

I did think I might have to give it one more go 🙈😂

[@jasonhopkins6357]

Don’t let this get you down mate, you’ll come back stronger. 💪💪

[@GiorgioCoppolaCycling]

Thanks Jason 👌 good chance for me to work on a weakness... the indoor trainer 😅

[@BikeRacingWithoutMercy]

So sorry to see this setback Giorgio. Ian de Junker broke both arms, and was quite quickly back on the trainer and then outside. I reckon you could still aim for a good race season in the second half of the summer 💯

[@GiorgioCoppolaCycling]

Thanks Phil and can’t imagine breaking both arms that would be awful... but zwift for now and fingers crossed I will be back in no time 🤞

[@cycloboyriley]

Oh no! We raced there last October and my dad thought he was going to die on the descent every lap and he went over the bars in warm up down there! My course was really boring not even a gap jump! Recover fast 💨

[@GiorgioCoppolaCycling]

Haha the descents are super tricky I felt the same way... holding on for dear life 😂 and ahh that sucks you will be on the big course before you know it, flying down the hills and showing your dad how it’s done 💪

[@cycloboyriley]

I hope I’m on the adult course soon they are much more fun

[@philrich5721]

Sorry to hear of your crash mate. I'm sure you'll heal up quickly and be smashing it again soon!

[@GiorgioCoppolaCycling]

Thanks Phil... fingers crossed I will be back out in no time 🤞

[@carollong620]

Don’t worry 😉 Giorgio, could have been worse, could have broken both arms 🤕. I think the problem was you didn’t hear Del’s pre-race top tip - just stay on! 😂. You can join me in my Spinning classes if you like, always said it was safer than real bikes 😂. Btw I’ve got a spare blue sling if you need one ... 😂. Take care, wishing you a speedy recovery to catch the end of the summer season 🎯. Back to gym training 🏋️‍♀️ for The Rocket as well with her trainer temporarily out of action xx

[@GiorgioCoppolaCycling]

Breaking both arms would be hell 😂 and it’s a fair bit safer may have to join you as you don’t need hands either 🤷‍♂️😂 the rockets a pro in the gym now I’m not needed... but one positive the cast has got me out of the washing up 😝😂

[@mandygoswell1099]

Well done xx

[@GiorgioCoppolaCycling]

🙈

[@Crustyfur]

Speedy Recovery George. I can go after your KOM’s at Minley now and Know you ain’t getting them back for a while 😜

[@GiorgioCoppolaCycling]

Thanks Chris 😃 and haha save a few KOM’s for when I’m back 😜

[@Andrade-Zwift-Racing]

Oh man, I'm sorry to hear that you hurt yourself. I hope you recover quickly.

[@GiorgioCoppolaCycling]

Thanks appreciate it 👌

[@morgan349]

Hope you heal quickly. Zwift racing will keep the pecker up and the form high. Get well soon

[@GiorgioCoppolaCycling]

Thanks Mike and yep plenty off zwift on the plan 😅

[@dave4114]

Time for some zwift videos!

[@GiorgioCoppolaCycling]

Lots of zwift coming up 😅

[@paulhamblett7791]

Ooopsss!! :-/

[@bikerda1]

Maybe, for your own health and safety, it's time to hang up the bikes and take up professional eating and full time Rocket bothering. 😜

[@GiorgioCoppolaCycling]

Couldn’t agree more with this 😂 I’m definitely better at eating and bothering the rocket so you could be on to something 😝
