Fail pic from the Tour of Utah.

That's a great shot, but is it a FAIL?



BTW, that's Raymond Kreder from Garmin/Felt.

Ohhhhhhh, what a card! The whole fail thing is sooooooo funny! And Genius! It only took a couple of originators to get a whole boatload of lemmings to follow.

I believe the lemming label is used for people who blindly follow someone to their own detriment, so I'm afraid your aloof attempt at sarcasm is a FAIL.

as far as the numbers being upside down, that is just ridiculous. why?

great pic....

Traditional for rider 13 to post the number upside-down so that it sorta reads 31 rather than the unlucky alternative.

Oh, and lemmings run off cliffs rather than riding in boats, so "boatload of lemmings" = fail

you know, i never knew that about the number thing. thanks.

I thought the fail in this picture was the Wrong Way sign, not the number upside down...

Having ridden that course, a one way road, I can vouch that they not only went the wrong way, but also mostly above the speed limit. I still don't see a "fail" since it's clearly a bike race on a closed course.

Big props to the photog for capturing the moment though.
