De Weert recovering well from Vuelta team time trial crash

Kevin de Weert (Omega Pharma-Quickstep) is back in Belgium and recovering well from his horrific crash in the opening stage team time trial of the Vuelta. In the crash de Weert fractured his tibia, his collarbone and a cervical vertebrae, but at least recent scans have ruled out what was initially thought to be a ruptured patella tendon in his left knee.
