It happened behind me-I finished up front just behind the sprint. I'm not sure what happened either but one of the guys who crashed was hanging around the alterra after the race and had a sling on and just looked absolutely wrecked by the crash.
The sprint was looking kind of sketchy-I was right behind the two guys who were pushing and headbutting Mark Renshaw style but it all ended up being for nothing as everyone but the 4-5 guys who were contesting the win just kind of cruised in.
Overall I thought the race was great-awesome course and great weather.
