A few weeks after breaking her back in Rio she's just won the Tour of Belgium. Bloomin' heck!

Yep - I think she broke her back in 3 places. I know not all broken backs are the same, but it's still some achievement.

I'll say! I saw the crash and genuinely feared the worst

Me too, it was horrible in a kind of sickeningly understated way - the way she'd clearly made no attempt to move for several minutes was chilling. Must have been hard to even want to ride a bike downhill again after that.
