Spain's Pedro Horrillo travelled back home from Bergamo, Italy, yesterday after 17 days of recovery due to a crash in stage eight of the Giro d'Italia. Doctors transferred him by air-ambulance to the university clinic of Pamplona.
The Rabobank rider crashed and fell over a guardrail 80 metres in a ravine 65 kilometres into the Morbegno to Bergamo stage. After an induced coma for 24 hours, doctors performed surgery on his fractured left femur.
