I was in this race....I was the rider in blue/yellow tumbling at the end. The rider that caused this took many bad lines and risk in this race.

I do wish the guy that caused this would have said something down the line to the guys it affected. Small race scene here and that put a big damper on things.

I believe he's just objectively describing the situation from the perspective of the rider with the camera. Not assigning blame. For example, if there are riders "in the way" of your escape routes, you probably should not go for that move and brake to avoid crashing.

Jesse Brennan A couple questions. How late into the race was this? It looks like a split was materializing and the guy in red/black had just done a turn on the front trying to bring it back. He probably could have peeled out, rather than in, but not a big issue. Main takeaway for the guy who panicked and created the domino effect...don’t get stuck on the wrong side of a split.

I was racing back in the 80’s as a Cat 3. I was still riding fast training rides just a few years ago. I noticed one big difference when riding these same training rides from decades ago. Riders are strong and fast but don’t know how to ride. I see constant over lapping of wheels and riders getting into tight spots for no reason. I made friends with one of these guys and he use to ask my advice. First thing I taught him was how to draft a wheel. His idea was to ride directly behind the wheel in front of him by inches. He rally had no clue and looked at many RU-vid videos to try to learn the proper way. There aren’t any I don’t think. I showed him how to spend as little energy riding and when to go hard. Just a few novice tips. He started staying in the ride more and not getting dropped as often. Eventually with experience a couple of years later he actually wins racing now. In my day we had more experienced riders help us newbies with the tricks of the trade. We need this sort of thing again to help avoid these dumb crashes.

Its always when there is a differential of speed. Slowing riders being passed by accelerating riders. Generally, the faster a race, the safer. I honestly feel like every bicycle racer would benefit from reading motorcycle safety guides. The "escape route" is a common theme for motorcyclists on the highway who often get cutoff by inattentive drivers. Being conscientious of always having a lane to escape to or even a grassy median, is a good habit to develop.

The general feeling I've gotten is, if you have to announce your presence in a race with an "on your left/right," you're taking a risk and trying to shoot a gap that isn't there (you shouldn't have to if you're taking a clean line). In a group ride, that's good ediquitte, but in a race competitiors have no obligation to just hand you the fast line on a silver platter. You have to make sure you have the real estate to get through safely.

Great analysis and comments. I race this track all the time - with cars, obviously a lot faster. And your analysis and comments are exactly the same as we'd describe on four wheels - going for a gap that's no longer there, with no plan of how to get out of the situation when, not if, it goes pear-shaped. Can't just go for open track and hope it all works out: hope is not a strategy.

This was Cat 5, right? Feathering the brakes is always an option. As soon as you stop pedaling it sends the signal to those behind that you're no longer moving up. If freewheeling doesn't slow you enough then a gentle touch of the brakes will do. Simple actions that signal your intent. Of course you never want to signal your intent when trying to get away but if you're going to be coming backwards towards someone, it's always nice to give them some visual clues. I'd like to say that the guy learns from this but to put yourself in that position in the first place makes me wonder if he was still suffering from another head-munching crash in a day or two prior to this.

Need to look ahead for slowing riders, as soon as you see one ... move onto a better line for overtaking ... this can be done gradually with smooth movement so riders around you blend smoothly rather than a last minute jerk of the bike to dart right then left.

I distinctly remember my last crash before I quit cycling. It was very rainy and I had a train of about 5 guys in front of me. We were coming out of a corner going around 50k/h. And I saw this guy 2 places in front of me just ride off the road. He could have avoided problems if he just kept rolling out on the grass and stay upright and wait for the rest of the group to pass before going on the road again. Instead what this guy did was steer back onto the road right away, falling right in front of us instead (this all happened in slow-motion of course). And then all I could do was relax my body and accept whatever happened next, as I knew a crash was unavoidable. It was too bad because I felt really strong that day; I was always good in rain and was going to be in the next breakaway. The next thing I remember was I was laying on the ground and as I tried to pick up my bike again and continue the race, I heard somebody scream out "no, no, careful!" and then I realized that another rider's leg was inside one of my wheels, right in-between the spokes. I was stronger than I ever was when I made my departure from the sport at 21. Sadly I moved away to another town to study and didn't look for another team. Studying and racing was not easy enough to combine. I am 30 by now, but who knows I might race again in the future.

I think the big miscalculation was not realising the guy in front will at some point want to take the shortest line around the bend too, which means veering to the left. If this were in a straight line, it probably wouldn't have led to a crash, just a few cuss words from the rider behind.

I was in a Project Echelon RR a few years ago, I made a pass on the very right edge of the road nearly on the last CM of pavement. My out was onto gravel and the ditch, fortunately I didn't need it. Same race, I was in the same situation on the left side up tight against yellow. In that case my out would have been disqualification, again all went well.

@albr4
@albr4 4 года назад
he went to the right which is what you're supposed to do and what everyone else would do, but it was the second guy where he couldn't make the right decision, it was behind the second rider where he should've braked, or gone to the right (it's on a corner so he could clip a riders front wheel on the right/behind). During a race you never want to brake so it's understandable he didn't think to do it, especially when you're tired or the adrenaline is going you don't think quick enough.
