Hughes OK after road-race crash
Veteran cyclist Clara Hughes has been given a clean bill of health after a Monday crash in a road race.
"Only scratches and minor bruises, nothing that her and her coach are worried about," a Hughes spokesman said Tuesday.
The 39-year-old from Glen Sutton, Que., went over her handlebars after being caught up in a crash at the Gatineau Grand Prix in Quebec.
She went on to finish eighth in the race won by Specialized Lululemon teammate Ina-Yoko Teutenberg.
On Saturday, Hughes won the Chrono Gatineau Time Trial.
