Rugby legend Richie McCaw took a bit of a tumble from his bike during the 5 Passes Tour.
The tour is a four-day cycling trek through the South Island through the Alpine Village of Hanmer Springs, Greymouth, and Arthur's Pass, circling back to Christchurch - supported by a team of over 20 crew members.
It sounds like a pretty stellar adventure with heaps of scenic landscapes, right?
The challenging terrain took an unexpected turn for Richie, though, as he suffered a nasty injury after making a close acquaintance with the pavement after falling off his bike.
McCaw's wife, Jemma, took to Instagram to share the aftermath of the tumble.
After the cleaning thought, she took to searching for any broken ribs, and it looked PAINFUL!
Hopefully he has a speedy recovery ahead of him!
