Davis Phinney went through the back windscreen of a car at 88 Liege...I remember seeing the pic of the window gone..he knocked the whole thing out. Was a bad Liege that one as the whole peleton rode into a trench across the road nobody could see0 -

Theres a picture in an old copy if CycleSport, IIRC, of the main bunch crashing. All the big names are heading tarmac-wards. Kelly is trying to bunny hop a fallen rider but looked as if he would land on the guy and bacg in the middle of the picture is Roche still on the saddle while the back wheel was vertically over the front wheel.
I must try and dig it out.'This week I 'ave been mostly been climbing like Basso - Shirley Basso.'0 -

Yeah, Langerdan, it was the crash Fignon broke his wrist in. It amazed at the time as the organisers didn't know their was a trench across the road or thought the riders would make it through0
