At the RideLondon Classique in early August, Chloe Hosking (Alé Cipollini) was winding up her sprint when a manoeuvre by Kirsten Wild (WNT-Rotor) caused her to crash and hit her head on the asphalt, leaving her with a concussion. Cyclingnews spoke to Hosking about her injury and the return to racing.
