What is it about car drivers, pedestrians and motorbike riders?

 

You close a road to keep the cyclists safe and then these feckers start ramming them, standing in front of them and side-swiping them and dragging their bikes along the road for 200 yards. :mad2:

 

Might as well just have the race through the centre of Glasgow... bring a few buses and taxis into the mix. :rolleyes:

that stage yesterday was pure carnage - liked the pictures of the kazakhstani lad who'd gone over the edge and broken his pelvis and leg getting dragged up the verge by his teammates with his droopy leg battering off the verge :borat:

 

as for the tv car veering across the breakaway group think he/she was trying to avoid a big tree on the verge and regrettably when you're an idiot driver it's not a hard choice to make - tree or cyclist mmmmm?!

I could not bear to watch Vinokourov being lifted up. It appears that he only broke his leg, not his pelvis - http://www.guardian.co.uk/sport/2011/jul/11/tour-de-france-2011-alexandr-vinokourov
