During the final stage of the 74th Tour de Pologne Szymon Godziek, Poland’s best freestyle mountain bike rider, performed a world first flip over the peloton rushing through Bukowina Tarzańska. Szymon switched from his mountain bike to a road bike in order to complete the jump in true style.

 @essfour: you think Dave is like Uncle Rico? If I only coulda stuck the landing. Coach should have put me in

 @essfour: seen it a million times but the best part that I never noticed before: he almost lost his pants on the crash and had to pull them up as he ran away. No wonder they caught him!

 All he needed was another foot or two and he would have nailed that jump Frown
  • 2 0
 @jptothetree: this one is cool but the original was much better just for its total unexpectedness. He didn't even do a trial run, and that copper running after him! Never will Watson be bested!
  • 1 0
 @jaame: Watson def takes the cake as you said, especially considering he didn't really have much of a landing. This one seems to have a hint of corporate taint to itSmile Still wicked watching a road bike flip over numerous roadies tho.
  • 2 0
 @VPS13: absolutely. I'm not going to say contrived, but the rawness is what made Watson's just totally off the scale

 Very impressive but if only we could had seen just one more camera angle, like the look of contempt from one of the riders in the peloton.

 I think many are overlooking something pretty important here. Is Pologne pronounced the same as Bologne, but with a P?
  • 4 0
 Indeed it is. Very good question.
  • 2 0
 Yes
  • 4 0
 Tour de Pologne is french, Bologna is italian, so i would go with colon, more than bolognese or gnocchi.

I always wondered why they named it in french. I mean... tour de france, vuelta d'italia, etc and f*ckin' tour de pologne..
It shoud be "Wyścig dookoła Polski", but then everyone outside Poland, would be more likely to levitate spontaneously, than pronounce it properly.
  • 2 0
 @lk3city: wait a sec, he's clearly talking about the French for Bologna, which is Bologne. Pronounced like Pologne, but more saucy.

Christ, we need this f*ckin race in MSA to get going...
