Two-time Olympian and Australian cycling star Caroline Buchanan is recovering from multiple injuries suffered in a vehicle accident.
Cycling Australia says Buchanan was with a friend in an off-road vehicle on private property outside Canberra when the accident occurred on Saturday afternoon.
The 27-year-old has spoken positively of her recovery from a broken nose and sternum and collapsed lungs in posting a photo of her bloodied face to social media.
"I wouldn't say 2017 ended quite as planned. It's been a rough couple of days in ICU after a vehicle roll," Buchanan said on Instagram.
