Branson suffers gruesome injuries following “colossal cycling crash”
The 71-year-old Virgin mogul feared he’d broken his back after colliding with another cyclist during day two of an endurance charity race across the British Virgin Islands this week.
Snaps show a huge, bloodied lump on his left hip and a heavily bruised and scratched arm through his torn cycling shirt.
Branson said he had to be treated for severe cuts and bruises on his elbow, an “extraordinarily big bump” on his hip and a “massive” hematoma on his leg after flying off his bike and crashing onto the hard concrete road on the island of Tortola.
