WTF is going on there? Tackle bike racing?
Either some tight spandex man to man love, or one helluva save.
one helluva save.
Not for the dude being hugged. He must have been ****ing pissed!
Man, the receiver has some mad bike handling skilz.
"Yeah, I can take on another passenger."
Okay, there has GOT to be a good story for this one.
Looks like the guy in blue decided to move from the right side of the picture (left side of the course) into the middle and ran into the guy that ended up molesting him.
Wow! Amazing save!
I guess if the guy in front cuts you off use him as a skid plate, or something to hang onto. Why not? It looks like the front guy came way over in front of the other guy, just as the guy in back was accelerating out of the turn. He knew he was there, he looks at him in the first photo. I would have no second thoughts on using him to save myself. It looks like he cut him off deliberately. I would probably try to kill the guy in front.
The hugger looks tall but still...risking my junk being grinded off from that guys back wheel is not worth it. If he would of slipped...I could see the medic picking it out of the rear break...
Blossom is the winner.
Ugly (the tall molester) got his front wheel clipped in the sprint and tried to stay upright with the bear hug. He managed but they were still going sprint speeds and as soon as he could, he let go and ran - in cleats - to come to a stop. No lost skin.
If it is consensual, is it molesting?
Here's the photo comment from the 'molester' himself...
Based on the photos and my recollection - Burrows (WSU) sprinted/lead-out early and up the middle, Wilson V. (Mengoni) jumped right and I followed on the left. Seeing a clear line to the finish, lowered my position (and head) and went into full sprint. Meanwhile, Wilson, began to overtake Burrows narrowly on the right, and Burrows quickly swerved away and left, directly in front of me. I saw his rear wheel suddenly come into my line, but it was too late and I immediately hit him and was literally on his saddle. The photos show the rest. His coolness and ability to maintain control saved us both a ton of skin.
I obviously need to work on sprinting with my head up a bit more, but I'm not even convinced that it would of prevented a collision in this case.
We were sprinting for the same reason that we (hopefully) all race - for fun, and this was definitely fun.
Ps. Burrows has HOT abs
Edit: DrWJODonnell beat me to it. Looks like he read the photo comments too. =)
Oh, and I WTB a closeup of the lady on the right of this photo heehee...

where can i get the jersey the hugger is wearing?
Simply amazing. Once in a lifetime save?
Does that go in the books as a missed tackle?
OMG. That is the funniest series of photos I have seen in a while.
Inter-racial manlove, too. Not that there is anything wrong with that. ;)
there must be some rational explanation for this weirdness. find out let us know. Cycling does not need such ****, if it was , what it appears to be.

Stating the bleeding obvious.

That's the kit of the Jonathan Adler Racing team (http://www.velocitynation.com/article.aspx?ID=507&CID=62), design inspired by a certain petroleum supplier.
That has to be the craziest thing I have seen since the guy racing with no saddle!
me and my teammates do stuff like that all the time.....without the bikes of course

you'd have to ask the penetrant :eek:.
ed rader
ah, slovid beat me to it! i was just going to post this since i visit that website frequently and saw the photos. absolutely amazing.
pretty smart move actaully, saved himself and others from a pile up.
Glad to hear 'the tackle' wasn't malicious.
But I got to say, something about those Prospect Park races (it is PP right?) just scare the Bejeebus out of me.
yep, Prospect Park it was.

Pretty clear the guy in back was at fault for overlapping the guys wheel and for "putting his head down" and not looking at what was going on around him. The guy in front does not look like he swerved hard at all, and in a final sprint, the guys are all over the road, so you have to be heads up or you will go down.
Humorous, but if I were the guy in front, I'd be pissed. It looked like he had a chance of placing high until the human anchor latched on to him.

Man I wish I had seen that. Judging by the amount of coverage that this is getting on the message boards Ugli's now officially an internet cycling legend.
Someone famous on the BF once said,
"the only thing we have to fear is fear itself, that, and forced sodomy".
Still true today.

That's hilarious. My wife has been a collector of Adler ceramics for years.

the funniest thing about that youtube video, are the tags:
sprint, cycling, manlove, gay.
If he is famous now I had better get back my multi-tool that he borrowed at a race earlier this year before it appears on ebay for $1000 as the pedaling marauder's equipment.
