The good news is that he sustained no head trauma. it has been an extremely tough time for the former bomber's coach in the last few years. Hope he makes a full recovery.

 

[Scorpus]

Well that's a shame

One of my Essendon mates has told me that Hird was not at fault for this incident

Cyclists never are

 

[smasha]

Don’t mind cyclists except the ones that ride two and three abreast instead of inline,behind each other,usually the ones wearing the full kit of gear do that,the “look at me” types.

 

[Adelaide Hawk]

When he hit the ground, was he shocked to be lying there?

Phewww what a relief.

 

[GreyCrow]

All the best to him

Glad to hear he is ok.

I heard the doctor gave him a jab and off he went

Paywall

Hird had another serious bike accident a few years ago, riding over tram tracks.

No matter what you think of Hird, you can't say that he ever lacked physical courage.

The full story will come out one day.

A bit of humanity, guys. Please.

 

[Baird]

Wasn't he in another cycling accident a few years ago?

 

[Coaster2012]

He literally scraped his knee. Thus, jokes are permitted.

You could also say he's not very good on a bike and should maybe stick to the Toorak tractor

 

[AFDogs]

Poor Hirdy.

He's had a rough trot the past few years.

He got off light

But there was carnage in the traffic afterward with vehicles slipping on fake tan

Yep.

Of all the things he learnt from Lance Armstrong, cycling clearly wasn’t one of them.

I'm shocked to be sitting here.

Two abreast is legal. As is three if you are passing.

Share the road.

yeah nah

Roads were built for cars. Cyclists should be free to use roads, but not to slow down cars.

I love 2 abreast

Think about how much time you spend slow or stationary behind other motor vehicles, almost all of them single occupant. For most people this is the majority of their commuting.

Think about how much time you need to slow down to pass a cyclist. A few seconds here and there.

What is really slowing people down?
