What, you've never seen bicycle cops do flying dismounts?

CX has the best transitions of all,

Tell Martinez he has to work up a better finish-line gesture.
Bow-and-arrow is a nice one.

Interesting that he has such a gap on the field. Sprint finish, long
break that wasn't quite caught, or 1 km-ish escape from the pack?

1K attack after a very fast race with many attempted breaks and a big
crash.

even look like there'll be any road rash.

No. Tackling another rider -- that's a paddling.

How come there aren't any sparks coming out from under his feet? That move
was much more spectacular in the old days, with steel cleats and flint-
based asphault.
