A month after a crash prematurely ended her mountain bike season, Marga Fullana is well on her way to recovery. The crash, two days before the World Cup in Champéry, Switzerland, in mid-September, fractured the Spaniard's L2 vertebra, but her rehabilitation has gone well and no long-term issues are expected.
