That was a beauty from about 20 wheels back.
You have to be making this up right?
I wish. There were about 3 broken collarbones and a lot of road rash and broken gear. He wheeled away, completely unscathed and completely unpopular."In many ways, my story was that of a raging, Christ-like figure who hauled himself off the cross, looked up at the Romans with blood in his eyes and said 'My turn, sock cookers'"

True
Was waiting for someone to pick me up on that. *cough* Work *cough* computer had no speakers.0 -
If that had come down to a photo finish against the guy still on the bike, would they just use the first part of the faller's body to cross the line to decide?0
-
The first part of his bike, but they'd have to make sure he was still 'connected' to it0

That could have been horrific. That metal sign could have severed something. He abandoned after that, didn't he?It's only a bit of sport, Mun. Relax and enjoy the racing.0 -
This crash is crazy. The guy goes down somewhat hard and then a rider comes fell pelt and rides into him but he just gets up and gets his bike. The rider that went over him hard also gets up straight away.
