For your viewing pleasure a video of what could have been a serious crash...but luckily wasn't in the end. No injuries sustained but pride a little bruised, I think 🙂

Like the way the person filming let out a "ooohhhhhhh" at the end 😆 Glad he's ok, 'cause that looked painful.

He's not sure and can't really remember it happening at all. He thinks his stem bolts might have loosened somehow causing the bars to swing round. Pretty lucky it was just bruises he walked away with!

Yeah, WCA, thanks. 😯 😉
Just didnt look to be too taxing or like a washout, so seemed like it must be mechanical.

Yeah I think he might have caught his pedal after the wheel washed out too. Nasty.
