“Hey guys, it’s Gordon. I’d like to share a very important message with you. All you know how much I love cycling and triathlons and Iron Man, etc., and this week unfortunately I had a really bad accident and really shook me and honestly I’m lucky to be here.”

“Those incredible trauma surgeons, doctors, nurses in the hospitals looked after me this week. They were amazing but honestly, you’ve got to wear helmets.
I don’t care how short the journey is I don’t care … These helmets cost money but they with a kid short journey they’ve got to wear a helmet.”
