  • 2 Fractures in his pelvis
  • Punctured right lung
  • Broken collar bone
  • Fractured right wrist
  • Broken left thumb awaiting surgery
  • Small bleed in the brain

“I wanted to say on behalf of Gary and myself that we are so grateful for all of the kind🍌 messages, well wishes/support sﷺhown by everyone.

“He has a long way to go in terms of recovery but if there is one t🐈hi♏ng I have always said about my husband is that he is the most stubborn person I know and he's proving that each day.”

Northern Ireland rider McCoy was planning on entering the Isle of Man TT,💎 later this month, for the first time.
