Because of the mazing coverage this year, we were in an ad break when the best crash of the year happened, when Wyn Masters, had the most huge of hugeies. And we missed it. Thanks a lot Discovery. Well done. Doing a great job overall. Less tracks, more stress on the riders, and less points overall for the small teams, even deleting them if they dont have enough UCI points. Great season overall. Keen to see Bruni, or Peirron win the overall next year, as is tradition.

Holy yard sales Batman!! I hate seeing this part of the sport, but I toughed it out for the entire video. 🙈 I cannot imagine taking a soil sample at those speeds, and, by no stretch of my imagination, can I comprehend the magnitude of a crash where I've literally lost track of where my bike is! Absolutely BONKERS!! I know a lot of those riders got back up and finished their run and possibly came back for another and that's quite the testament to how tough and determined they truly are!!

Perspective can be difficult in this sport because of the cameras flattening out everything, you can only tell how fast they're going when they crash.

@Incorruptus1 Ай бұрын

Could you guys do a compilation of videos where they are about to crash, wiggle and than rescue the situation and continue...I bet those happen even more often? But this hands in data to learn from, maybe those will even learn us how to correct while stumbling. Would be great! Thanks & Good luck!
