Hop on your bike and hit the road? Not so fast! Jan Ullrich, the legendaryformer cycling champ and Tour de France winner, found out the hard way that sometimes the road isn't as friendly as it seems. Ullrich, 51, was gearin' up for several TV shows, but hey, life doesn't always go according to plan. A careless driver failed to yield, causing a collision that left Ullrich with a broken collarbone, bruises, and road rash [1].
The mishap occurred near his home in Merdingen, nestled in the stunning Black Forest 2. This setback means Ullrich can't share his cycling expertise on the Eurosport show Velo Club as planned—the live show after the Giro d'Italia stages will have to go on without him.
