How NOT to do a flying Cyclocross Dismount

Alexa @ Just Keep Swimming posted this on her facebook a few weeks ago, then Emily @ Speed Laces did a cool post about watching a cyclocross race, so I figured it was time to share this video with the rest of the world.

Feel free to watch a few - hundred - dozen times! Poor guy, but man look at the air he got!


Ouch!

    BAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!

    I been researching cyclocross, debating between that or mountain biking, trying to see if mountain bikes are allowed or accepted at cyclocross events, that would be a win win for me

    He meant to do that.

    You can clearly hear him utter "Hey y'all, watch this!" at approximately the :06 second mark.
