There's a rumour that Wiggins was knocked off his bike in Bolton today by a white van pulling off a petrol station forecourt. Numerous broken ribs as well as wrist and hand injuries, currently in hospital.

Is the van OK?

The incident happened on Crow Orchard Road, close to the junction with Mossy Lea Road, at 6pm on Wednesday evening, when a white Astra van pulled off a filling station forecourt and collided with the cyclist.

Being on the road,as a professional cyclist at 6pm in this country is pretty foolish,IMO.

I heard he got some heavy whip marks from the antenna used for listening to the radio.

A serious case of Van Ariel disease if I'm not mistaken.

A later report said that as he fell he shouted "I'm a goner 'ere"

Oh dear, a thread about an Olympic hero being possibly seriously injured and it only needed one tyred bike related pun to start off a chain reaction...

He just spoke so he can't be tyred or flat.

I think we should put the brakes on these puns.
