Gordon Ramsay escapes bicycle accident without serious injuries

“I’m lucky to be here,” said Gordon Ramsay, before urging all fathers to wear their helmets.

Celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay narrowly escaped serious injury in a bicycle accident in Connecticut. The “Hell’s Kitchen” star shared the news on Instagram, showing a large bruise on his torso and calling on everyone to wear a helmet when cycling.

In a video message, Ramsay thanked the doctors and nurses who treated him and stressed the importance of helmets to prevent serious injuries. He also shared photos of his bike before and after the accident, showing the extent of the damage.

Despite this ordeal, Ramsay has been actively promoting the second season of his show, “Gordon Ramsay’s Food Stars,” in which he and Lisa Vanderpump search for the next food and beverage entrepreneur. The show has a new twist: Contestants pitch their ideas to Ramsay and Vanderpump, who then select teams to compete for a $250,000 investment prize.
