Absolute carnage in the sprint… 3 crashes in the final kilometer

Petacchi wins it and it will be interesting to see who all crashed. Cavendish was involved in the first crash, the second took out 90 of the peloton, the third took out Tyler Farrar.

WOW!!!

spandex-clad bike racing sissies make the Busch sisters look manly in comparison.

LOL

over the years the stock car boys have gotten pretty good at the road courses

in the old days Dan Gurney or Mario Andretti could pop in and pretty much dominate on a road course (like Riverside)

now the regulars run up front pretty much all the time

The Dog and the first crash

Two other crashes occurred after this one in the last 1 km or so.

Bet you Fabian Cancellara missed the accident because he pressed the button on his brake lever and rocketed away :)

Versus commercial break cut-aways this year are terrible. The announcers are not able to do segues or lead-ins to commercial breaks. Production control just arbitrarily cuts in mid-scene. Really bad editing. Greedy folks.

I don’t know. They don’t have those stupid horns to keep us awake, either.
