HeadDown Posted March 19, 2018 Posted March 19, 2018 Just had a quick look through this thread. I presume the people posting here are cycling fans which makes the tone of some of the comments really strange. A rider crashes - gets concussed, breaks ribs and the one on Saturday could have ended his career or worse - and it's an opportunity to have a few digs at the guy. What I'd expect on a 4x4 chat, not here. Cav', Shell Belle, mazambaan and 5 others 8

Noshow Posted March 19, 2018 Posted March 19, 2018 Ouch. That one is just bad luck, maybe a bit of carelessness - he was just cruising in the bunch. But it takes some mentality to keep coming back from all those crashes and keep taking the risks he does. He is quite extraordinary, and bonkers. BigDL 1

This is a Mark Cavendish thread, not a Mark Cavendish Crashed thread. There are topical and general conversations about him here. Edited March 19, 2018 by Patchelicious NelAndre 1
Shebeen Posted March 19, 2018 Posted March 19, 2018 its clear that he doesnt have one shoe on anymore - cant miss those bright orange leathersyou can see his right shoe pops off at impact, flies out sideways, bumps the lotto nl rider and bounces back. insane, I'd guess that the ratchet strap broke loose he will have nightmares about this one...well any normal person would!

Whilst the thread title says Mark Cavendish, OP's comment is about his crashes!!....... just an observation of course and to put the thread into context HeadDown 1
T-Bob Posted March 19, 2018 Posted March 19, 2018 This is a Mark Cavendish thread, not a Mark Cavendish Crashed thread. There are topical and general conversations about him here. Oh great... I thought it was a crash thread. Better kick off some other content then. His middle name is Simon and has has a MBE from queenie. He also has an honary doctorate from University of Chester, runs the Rise Above Sportive, is married to Peta, has a daughter, has a step son and 3 houses (Tuscany, Isle of Man and Essex). He had 11 wins in his first season. Hummm, what else? Patchelicious 1

pista Posted May 14, 2018 Author Posted May 14, 2018 He has managed to stay on his bike and get a 10th spot
