Gordon Ramsey delivers important Father’s Day message after bicycle accident

NEW LONDON, CT (WFSB) – Celebrity chef Gordon Ramsey shared an important Father’s Day message after he was in a “nasty” bike accident in Connecticut.

In a post on his page “X” (formerly Twitter), Ramsey reminded people to wear a helmet while riding their bike.

He said the accident happened this week, but it was unclear where it occurred.

He was treated at L&M Hospital in New London and thanked the doctors who cared for him.

A statement from the hospital said: “Bicycle accidents are a common injury we see in the emergency department, particularly in the summer months when people are more active. Wearing the right equipment, especially a helmet, can significantly reduce the likelihood of serious injury. Helmets reduce the risk of head injury by 48%, severe head injury by 60%, traumatic brain injury by 53%, facial injury by 23%, and the overall number of cyclists killed or seriously injured by 34%.”
