Cyclo-cross chaos (Marcin Motyka on Facebook).JPGVideo: More cyclo-cross shenanigans as riders slide into the mud
It’s cyclo-cross season, and the comedy videos are coming thick and fast … well, the mud is thick, the riders not so fast as they attempt to get through it.
Similar to the video we posted from the Pan American Cyclocross Championships in Cincinnati last week, this video – from a race in Asia – shows how mud plus sloping terrain combine to make things very difficult indeed for riders.

Spare a thought for the guy in the orange helmet … he’s fighting for third place when he comes into this section, but by the end of it he’s second to last.
For all we know, the other guy he manages to beat out of the quagmire is still there …
Szczypta poniedziałkowego humoru..

Simon joined road.cc as news editor in 2009 and is now the site’s community editor, acting as a link between the team producing the content and our readers. A law and languages graduate, published translator and former retail analyst, he has reported on issues as diverse as cycling-related court cases, anti-doping investigations, the latest developments in the bike industry and the sport’s biggest races. Now back in London full-time after 15 years living in Oxford and Cambridge, he loves cycling along the Thames but misses having his former riding buddy, Elodie the miniature schnauzer, in the basket in front of him.
Cheers Andy

I suspect you are right. But no harm in hoping.
Apologies for the oversight there, it's been corrected. Obviously it should have said 97ft🤦♂️
