he didn't 'cut the course'
he was forced off course to avoid a horrific crash. in doing so he plummeted into a field, necessitating a leap across a ditch. The idea that he should have wrestled his bike to a stop, dsmounted and walked back up the hill is ****ing stupid. He could have flatted, broken a cleat jumping, broken a fork, or simply crashed. The idea that there was intent to gain is wildly silly. To equate it as an act of cheating is to simply demonstrate you don't have a workable grasp of the english language.
