Summary:
A lot of people think cycling is boring, but it can sometimes give us crazy, unexpected, funny, and some of the greatest sports moments.
-Dan McLay gave us one of the most epic cycling moments when he out-sprinted everybody. Although it wasn’t at a tour de France stage, but rather a small one-day race in France, but the whole world saw it as it went viral. It was one of the craziest sports moments of 2016.
-Also in 2016, Dafne Fixed used the “superman” position to overtake his colleagues on a descent in Italy. He did it on a fixed bicycle.
-This is a crash that you will never see in crash compilation, because there is no video footage of it, and the only thing we have is a still image. In a 2016 Tour de France stage, French rider Julian Alaphilippe was hit by a strong wind gust that lifted him and his bike in the air and threw him against the rocks. Unbelievably, he was able to continue his tour de France with no signs of a crash. This crazy moment reminds us of how dangerous wind can be in a bike race.
-Road bike riders are not known for being good bike handlers, but there are exceptions. Peter Sagan gave us some of the most memorable sports moments, including when he saved himself from imminent crashes. These examples show why is a special bike rider.
-At a 2017 Tour de France stage, we had one of the closest finish margin ever. There is also a strange phenomena can be seen in every photo-finish.
-In the 2002 Tour Down Under. One of the best sports moments took place, when Michael Rogers borrowed a road bike from a fan to win the tour. It was a crazy coincidence that never happened before in pro cycling.
-Most people that were watching the race live didn’t notice what exactly happened to Mark Cavendish’s wheel in this crazy crash in 2010. After the race, this photo was circulating among global cycling networks, and it shows the moment before the disaster.
