Moment cycling hero Sir Chris Hoy forced to leave room at 4am amid cancer fight after bathroom floods through ceiling
@Source: thesun.co.uk
SIR CHRIS HOY has more than enough to contend with right now without having to worry about water leaking through his hotel roof at 4am.
But that's the fate which the inspirational Scottish cycling star had to contend with in the early hours of the morning when a guest situated above him left the bath on.
The Olympic cycling legend revealed in October that his prostate cancer is terminal.
Hoy, 49, has been given just two years to live by doctors, but has approached his condition with inspiring positivity.
He still has a busy calendar of events - as he gives inspirational speeches and raises funds for charity in addition to promoting his autobiography.
So he could have done without the hotel drama which he experienced at 4am.
He took to his Instagram account to share video of water gathering in massive puddles in his bathroom as it trickled down from the level above.
And he wrote: "Big shoutout to the person who left their bath running upstairs and caused me to have to move room as at 4am."
Hoy - whose wife Sarra was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis shortly after Hoy's announcement - has made multiple appearances to raise awareness.
Who could forget the ovation he got from Scotland rugby fans as he delivered the match ball for the game against Ireland?
He gave a rousing speech at the BBC Sport Personality of the Year Awards in December.
He also presented darts sensation Luke Littler with the Ballon d’Art trophy in January - an emotional appearance which left viewers in tears.
