Video: Andreas Kolb Narrowly Avoids Hitting a Car on the Les Gets World Cup Course

If the UCI is happy to let traffic cross an active DH track then they need to adequately protect the track and its riders. The organiser of the race has a duty of care after all, and the governing body should require a specific level of protection for this type of crossing. This clip has demonstrated that a lone marshal is ineffective at traffic management, however if either side of the crossing is protected with a tyre shredding mechanism which can be raised and lowered, then all parties could demonstrate the liabilities have been covered. This may sound a bit extreme, but what is more important a life or someones right of way?

Speculation Arises Around Wiggle Buyout By German Retail Giant Signa Sports

It pisses me right off this, I have lots of gift vouchers I received from family for Xmas and birthday for bike24. I have emailed them many times and they never answer my questions. They haven’t even answered my latest email, and won’t refund the vouchers. Bastards.
