Cyclist gets wiped out by medical motorbike

Belgian cyclist Stig Broeckx is nursing a broken collarbone and rib after being hit by a medical motorbike during the Kurne-Brussels-Kurne semi-classic.

Broeckx veered away from the peloton when he was struck by the motorbike from behind, sending him crashing to the ground.

The 25-year-old was taken to hospital for examination.

It's the latest in a series of crashes involving riders and cars and motorocycles.
