That crash was a tough one! 😬 Have you ever had a dramatic moment like this in a race? Share your craziest cyclocross or cycling stories in the comments-I’d love to hear them! 🚴💬

I was convinced that I was going to crash on those logs every time. Great vid!

[@TheCoeliacCyclist]

It was in my head after last year and I think that is what made it happen. I need to sort that over summer.

Yet another excellent video Simon, thanks for giving the Wheelers so much credit throughout. Awesome

[@TheCoeliacCyclist]

No problem 👍 you all worked hard to provide a great course. I now need to master those logs before next year.

Will be great to see you at Cyclopark, any help in the pits greatly appreciated! Another great video 📸

[@TheCoeliacCyclist]

Can't wait! I'm looking forward to supporting the younger riders and seeing how they do. I'll definitely give you a hand as it sounds like plenty of bike swaps will be needed.

Great video Simon. Loads of different angles!

[@TheCoeliacCyclist]

Glad you enjoyed it mate, missed you last week, hopefully see you at the final round.

Mountain bikes should not be in cyclocross races

[@TheCoeliacCyclist]

Not allowed in UCI races but are in local races. It's sometimes a good way for people to start in cyclocross if they can't afford another bike. Most of the races it is slower on an MTB so you wouldn't want to ride them. This year two races it favoured MTB's which is unfortunate. I don't agree with people who ride their MTB instead of their CX bike. Perhaps MTB's shouldn't get league points? Something to think about I guess, but to be honest it doesn't affect me as I'm not running near the front and enjoy the racing.
