What a f***ed up cycling world actually is....
A person that has the one and only motive for this behaviour (a simple revenge) is qestioned and judged... But the support team driver that has millions of motives to knock a competiror off a bike has the last word in this argument, simply denying it and getting away dry from it... FCUK YOU - UCI!
This guy has some serious anger problems. I think he needs help.
Oh no, this could irrevocably harm Swiss/Chinese relations.*
*Some times I wonder what relations some other parts of the world have with each other seeing as England/Britain has had its fingers in all the pies for so long. And Scotland had that Panama thing.
The car just gave him a friendly little bump. It's really his fault, riding in the middle of the road as if he owned it, plus not wearing hi-viz clothing. Tut-tut.
Kudos to him for running about in those cleats. I can barely even ride a bike properly in mine.
Jason Statham does it better though.
If you’re referring to the transporter bus fighting scene then I think you will find he is wearing pedals with toe straps.
Double post.
Because running around with pedals on your feet is easy.
Brilliant effort there, 55kg cyclist shows normal sized people who's the boss.. except no one knows whether to laugh or be shocked, I like the fact that no one was actually scared enough of his 'wrath' to actually restrain him or even keep an eye on him until he went and pulled a hand pump out of the boot, presumably to shove it up the nearest swiss team members bottom and start pumping!
