Wow. That's the most amazing velo picture I think I've ever seen. It's capturing the tiniest part of a second before he touches the floor. Once he does...


Ouch

AND he won the race:
FGG post

These guys really need some thought bubbles.....nary has a better photo for a caption contest been seen

holy ****. are they just crossing the finish line? wow. amazing.

that is a pretty extreme wheel failure, it is completely outside the fork? i love that flying tire

Whoa, that wheel broke right through the fork. I hope wood hurts less than concrete.

Note to self: Don't switch tubular glue with mayonnaise.

Foot Long Splinters!

Wheel sausage

I can hear the spokes popping in that picture!

mark it zero smokey.

actually, that looks like a clincher rim....but that is so far back maybe that's what tubular rims looked like...who knows.

Thanks for the most amazing sight for today.

Luckily, those guys were clad from to to bottom except elbows. At least a bit of protection.

dammit, i thought this was going to be about the big lebowski.

Sorry to disappoint. But I thought the combo of the quote/reference and picture would be appropriate. A little morning fun. *Smiley*

"Aaaaeeerrrrgh"

maybe it's their expressions, but they look like twins or at least brothers?

OVER THE LINE

Smokey, this is not 'Nam. This is bowling. There are rules.

your wheels broken dude....

you really gotta wonder if he won? before that wheel exploded i suspect he was a hair ahead of the other dude. would definitely be the coolest win ever.

That fork is going to leave a 10 foot long divot in the planks I bet.



[Wait, is it weird to use the future tense about an event that probably took place 50 years ago? The track has been repaired, these guys are probably in retirement homes, if they're still around....]

On the FGG site (see the link) it say's he won.

that's amazing.


such an awesome picture.

You want a new wheel? I can get you a wheel, believe me. There are ways, Dude. You don't wanna know about it, believe me.

you can see the tubular tire right there.. its a tubular.

Donny! You are out of your element!


...good thing the riders are wearing helmets.
