god damn dumbass americans always drinkin and driving and just generally all being idiots. shucks...
haaah
haaah
It's been photoshopped to look like a crash. and it's very obvious. look at the dust underneath the car and the incorrect perspective of the car. Still, cool job! 
It's got everyone else fooled!

What the f*ck are you talking about you crazy basterd, 2 people died and you say its photoshoped and say "cool job". You are one sick f*ck man, Like you are really messed up, Its not photoshoped in anyway there were storys in the paper and the internet.
Have a little respect.

Perhaps the event did happen... but in that case the newspapers probably patched that picture together so they'd have a picture to sell the story with.
You cannot deny the fact that the picture is not real. Look at the perfectly straight dust cloud underneath the car? And look carefully at the way the wheels are in relation to the road. perspective is totally wrong. If it was real you would not be able to see as much of the front left wheel.

You are the sickest f*ck on all of this site, A f*cken newspaper conspiracy? are you serious?
Do you think the moon landing was shoped to?
I have nothing more to say to you, your just sick.

Have you even looked at the tell-tale signs in the picture? I'm not being "sick". If anyone did die in an accident like this then I have the utmost respect for them.
I did not say I believed that there was a newspaper conspiracy. I said it was a possibility. Perhaps I should rephrase...
If this picture accompanied a crash story in an article then somebody must have edited the picture to add to the story's effect. I do not know whether the story is real, I do not have an opinion on who edited the picture to go with the story. What I do KNOW (not think but KNOW) to be correct is that this picture is not genuine and cannot have possibly been taken as it appears above..

I've now found a source and cannot believe it!
This is on msnbc! http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/24943229/
I am now undecided... It is possible that the cars back wheels are slightly raised above the ground due to the impact created from hitting the cyclists. That would explain the odd angle is sits at in the picture. Whilst the dust cloud is an odd shape, it does look more realistic from further back in my room...
On the other hand... msnbc would certainly pay a lot of money for an action shot like this - there is incentive to create it.
Either way, the "city official" who captured or edited this photo did a good job.

i agree this is real.... look all dust on the road... when a car drives by its gonna make it move.... and if he locks his wheels then its gonna make the dust go crazy as he slides over it.... real picture mate
the cloud is smoke from the tires, its kind of obvious considering that car deff does not have ABS so its a possibilty that that is what the so called "dust cloud us." common ppl.
ride the lighting up his own ass. drunk drivers are gay and retarded. its just f*gs who think they are cool.
dang , i heard this on the local news here in Toronto. This picture is certainly right at the impact.
personally, i don't think you shouldn't posted this picture. that's a little too much knar to be showing if half those people in the air are actually dead
one dead ten injured. to some, this is why you should never road bike. but to others this is why you should never drive.
Meh, i do road biking sometimes - prefer MTB but, Most drivers dont care about cyclists, they cut u up on the road and overtake in blind corners, its soo stupid.
en Ensenada tambien a pasado eso es real mente feo, sabiendo que la persona que va manejando saldra libre en unos meses si no en dias...
The 28-year-old driver was apparently drunk and fell asleep when he crashed into the race, said police investigator Jose Alfredo Rodriguez.
A photograph taken by a city official showed bicyclists and equipment being hurled high into the air by the collision.
Rodriguez said Juan Campos was charged with killing Alejandro Alvarez, 37, of Monterrey.
Authorities said the wreck happened 15 minutes into the 34-kilometer (21 mile) race Sunday along a highway between Playa Bagdad and Matamoros, across from Brownsville, Texas.
Campos said he is an American citizen living in Brownsville. The U.S. Consulate could not immediately confirm that.
"We are looking into the incident in terms of whether American citizens were involved,

With Texas' death penalty and prison system he'll be the first one on the list. Because in Texas they have an express lane for people that do these things, that is of course if this guy is tried in the US. It did happen in Mexico right?

Its amazing to think that someone could cause so much damage will trying to do a simple task like driving. I think i speak for most of the pinkbike community when i say our hearts go out to the riders who died.
what a f*ckin retardo he should be locked in a cell with a hungry wolf or somethin...DOUCHEBAG but i say this should be a memorial POD or somethin cuz the guys he killed had families that were probably watchin that race too
oh yeah! i saw that in the "Metro" newspaper a day or 2 days ago when i was supose to go to school... i was like wtf? thats soo horrible

that is f*cked up. He should get severly punished for that. I know that when stuff like that happens in england the punishment does not reflect the crime.
This is why I stick to the trails. Trees don't hurt as bad as CARS!
But RIP and drivers suck

it is very sickaning to scroll through this and see all the commenbts of people luaghing at this and taking it as a joke...when a fellow biker dies or gets seriously injured by drunk drivers we shoulddnt be laughing we should be supportive of the people that shared that same love for the sport as we do it doesnt matter what they ride DH XC road street anything its all biking... i always here people saying they wont to expand this sport and make it more heard of through out the world and is this how you want your name coming up as the guy who luaghed at fellow riders who were injured or killed just take a miniut to think about it give these riders some respect and think about it next time......
yeah well said, Its all a type of cycling offroad or onroad, it doesnt matter, i never used to like onroading, gave it a go and love it now, spend more time there than off road. RIP
"Matamoros, Tamaulipas, Mexico(Monday June-2-200
Seven competitors from yesterday cyclist race were severely injured after being hit by a drunk driver, one of them died and other three were hospitalized. The drunk driver was arrested after the rest of the participants tried to lynch him"

You guys are f*cking retards. I'm not a roadie neither but i thing it's just unbelievable for someone to wish something as bad as this to people that they dont even know. People died in that accident. One of these "f*cking roadies" as you said might be anyone one you know. If you really think what you said there is a good reason for this to happened to you.

A similar thing happened near us, but not as bad. Some assh*le drove into the Tour Of Britian because he thought that it was an unproper use of the Lake District. Despite the fact it's a road race! So he thinks it's ok for cars to drive on the road but not bikes to ride on it.
might be fake whats the chances of you taking the photo at exactly the right moment without knowning a drunk driver was going to take the rodies out
this is beautiful because i f*cking hate road bikers but terrible at the same time because death is not cool
on the point buddy died im sory but ive had ass hole on road bike go to pass there buddy and go to the middle of the road, theres bike lanes for a resion. and none of them are in a bike lane and its MEXICO....water costs 3 times what a carona costs. And a carona is a doller each. common ITS MEXICO!!!!
strike! lol.
I live in México, this happens all the time.
All you need to get a driving license is paying for it 50$us in a supermaket.
They have no idea how to drive and are totally unaccountable. I've seen guys that were so wasted they couldn't stand, they were driving back home...
The police just don't care, you give them 300pesos and you can run away.
A cab drove me to the beach one time, the guy was driving 80mph while the limitation was 20...by typing a text on his phone and seatbelt unfastened.
The result is thousands of death and I can't do nothing but pray every day to arrive at my university in one piece.

I herd that by the time the cops got to the scene of the crash, spectators and racers had already dragged the driver out of his car and started beating his ass.
hahah lol americans, or as i like to call them world police, has anyone else noticed if u go to america how fukin scary it is, there all fruit loops if they could they would own the world, pitty really as great britain almost did own the whole world hahahaha, lots of my mates are roadies but are also downhill mountain bikers R.I.P to the people who died they didnt deserve to and i hope the guy gets strung up.
See the problem is, as the guy on the left hand side of the screen. If you cheap out on a carbon fiber stem, you will find yourself flying holding only your bars.
roadies do suck bad but they didnt have to to extreams to get ride of them, just say the shavers stoped working lol

I'm not at all a fan of road bikes(or bikers). They get in my way on the road.
But still, they deserve the same respect as any other biker. Disrespect is not cool with me. RIP buddy. Driver should be locked up for life.

How drunk can you be. " Oh look a big group of bikes let's f*ck wit em. Bang now your f*cked you stupid bikers". Honestly how f*cked up can u be?
yeah i agree...they do have the right of way well at least in the US....but come on do u really think your gunna win against a 2 thousand pound hunk of metal. This should be something for the road bikers to learn from. Jump on a Mt bike and stay away from the roads.
