Driveway May 25, 2023 Contact made!

This is a small part of the race (video in work) which a racer make contact into my handlebars. I have some comments in the video but please feel free to post what you think.

I hope your full video captures those in the field who actually had no place racing, like the gravel rider who nearly took out the field multiple times.

Looks like he got squeezed into you. In fact, looks like your teammate is the one who pushed him over.

Is the purpose of this video to promote the idea that intentional contact was made here? Or just pointing out that someone made incidental contact with you during a crit race...?

I think this contact was a bit too much. Sure we all bump some in crits...but maybe not this much.

Looks like you let up and started getting passed. Everyone squeezed in and wheels started overlapping. If that little bit of meaningless "contact" almost took you out, take some tips from Tolley and work on upper body strength. I've seen more contact in middle school proms than that.....
