Default Video of a helluva crash in New York

At the finish line of a crit in Harlem on Sunday, the winner ate
it...big time...right after he crossed the line. Check it out:

http://cycleto.com/...w=article&id=281

The good news...nobody hit him (how did they miss?), and he eventually
got up and rode away.

Yikes.

Too bad there wasn't a good look at the crash back
in the field at about 0:33. Wonder what happened
there.

Not only rode away but I see no road rash and his jersey appears intact.

Winning provides a huge surge of adrenaline and testosterone which
temporarily makes the skin impenetrable. You can get an idea of the
effect if you get belted by gamma rays.

It ain't quite winning, but I reckon BAsher shaves his nutsack after
RBR posts for just these reasons.

What do you know about the Incredible Hulk's nutsack?

One guy - who is very high up at Bicycleing Magazine - had his bike
snap in two. The frame was in two separate piece.

Not sure how he is doing but we can expect a report on

This past weekend was all Tyler Hamilton, Michael Ball and Rashaan
Bahati. Though that Time guy swept up the big prize in the end.

You're on page 1 of the team organic photos, also?

Nice pictures. At first I was wondering why Ty-Ty and the
other Rock Racing dude were riding with behind the seat
bottle cages (incipient triathlism?) but it appears to be for
a video camera setup, right? There are two camera-like
things on Tyler's bars.

The Rock Racing shoe covers make them look like they
have enormous frog feet.

Supposedly there is a movie in the making.

The whole outfit is bizarre. But while I don't like their/Ball's
style, I like the fact that they have style.

Also, note that the Rock Racing guys are wearing outfits specific to
Sunday's race -- saying "Harlem Rocks" on them. Pretty cool.

You're pretty skinny for a Masters Fattie. Drink something!

Style is the new panache.

JT Seal of Approval! Only thing better is a Chung Chart.

Also, I forgot that the first movie eventually became Wired to Win,
which is really sad, because Wired to Win II: This Time, it's Legal
would have been even funnier, on multiple levels.

Obligatory link to JT's movie credit:
