Broke Bike Mountain

Despite the race promoter’s warnings to not do so, this racer rode through the drop-off ditch before the run up and snapped his bike in half. Wasn’t hurt, the crowd cheered, and he’s got a damn good (albeit expensive) story to tell for years to come.

More stories from the Seattle Cyclocross single-speed field and video to follow.

Note: anyone know this racer’s name?

It’s still good.  A bit of epoxy and it will be right as rain.

looks like he just broke his carbon steerer, which isn’t actually that hard… so not as many points as if he broke the frame in half.
