The celebrity chef, 57, posted an update on Instagram on Monday, letting fans know she’s doing well and is back to being a mom after the incident that “really shook” her (pictured is her son Oscar).
Gordon filmed himself riding along a remote trail and praised the youngster: “You’re doing great by the way. You’ve got your helmet on, the gears are intact and you’ve got your eyes on the road, right? Good boy.”
As he put on a helmet and sunglasses, turning the camera towards himself, he added: “It’s really nice to be back on the bike.”
The chef continued jokingly: “There you go. Slow down or the police will catch you for speeding. Please don’t get caught for speeding, your sister won’t be impressed.”
He also shared a clip of himself about to start riding a Zwift exercise bike, joking that “this ride will be a lot safer.”
Last month, Gordon showed off the painful bruise to his followers and issued a warning: “Tomorrow is Father’s Day and I have a very important message for all the dads out there… WEAR A HELMET! I was in a very serious accident this week while riding my bike in Connecticut.
“I’m fine and I didn’t break any bones or suffer any major injuries, but I’m a little bruised and look like a purple potato.”
“I am grateful to all the doctors, nurses and staff at Lawerence + Memorial Hospital in New London who cared for me and checked me out, but most grateful for my helmet that saved my life. Have a great Father’s Day and take care, Gx.”

Gordon received an outpouring of support from his celebrity friends and fans, who wished him a “speedy recovery” and praised him for urging others to wear helmets while out cycling.
Gordon’s accident last month had a ripple effect and reignited the debate over bicycle helmets, with people arguing whether they actually make cycling safer or more dangerous.
Some research has shown that wearing a helmet dramatically reduces the chances of serious injury and decreases the number of people who die in accidents.
But other studies claim that they actually increase the chances of having an accident and make it more likely that you will suffer a life-threatening spinal injury.
Others argue that ordering cyclists to wear helmets amounts to victim-blaming and diverts attention from measures that would actually improve safety, such as better bike lanes and safer driving.
