Garmin’s Horrific Day at the Tour
Screencap of the aftermath of the Stage 6 crash that saw Ryder Hesjedal’s GC hopes dashed and Tom Danielson’s (and Ryder’s) Tour ended. Also captured the photog snapping that image of TD on the roadside.
Old dude looks like he’s saying to his wife, “Fancy having a bit of a go at one of these boys? This one’s wounded…”

2002 Giro d’Italia: Was actually going to look for this shot the other day. Epic freaking crash, and Tyler pops back up and gets back on the bike. Supposedly the mechanic had removed every third tooth on the pawls to make the bike lighter removed 3 of the 6 pawls in the freewheel to reduce drag. Tyler seemed to lose all contact in the freewheel at high speed. That worked well.

Ouchies! Where does the Band-Aid go?
I once drunkenly ran into a barbed-wire fence at full speed. Stopped me dead in my tracks just like a cartoon with my legs and arms sticking straight out. But it was winter and I was wearing multiple layers. I didn’t get any puncture wounds or cuts, but the resulting bruise looked like someone hit me with a baseball bat in the stomach.
I couldn’t imagine hitting it at racing speeds after being struck by a car wearing nothing but Lycra. Hard as effing nails.
