Again with the fans being allowed to swarm round the cyclists acting like idiots. That really annoys me. :mad:

Jokester · 7 Aug 2016 at 19:52

Oh ****, that's bad

marc2003 · 7 Aug 2016 at 19:52

Ouch.

Craig1981 · 7 Aug 2016 at 19:53

OOOOH!!!! That was a nasty crash!! The leader is down!

Sui · 7 Aug 2016 at 19:53

Has she died?

Certainly wasn't moving

SoundEng · 7 Aug 2016 at 19:54

**** that was bad. Properly made me flinch

Hope she's OK

Craig1981 · 7 Aug 2016 at 19:55

Fingers crossed she's just knocked out or in shock!

EDIT: I rewound the stream to rewatch that. That was absolutely horrific. The way she landed was the worst part.

marc2003 · 7 Aug 2016 at 19:57

Lizzie back in contention for a medal. :eek:

The height of the kerb area didn't help, her body folded on top of her and then she slammed down awkwardly on top of it for good measure.

Same here, and I wish I hadn't

I hope she's okay, but it really didn't look good.

That was one of the worst crashes I think I've ever seen looked horrific.

Everything crossed she's just knocked out but it really didn't look good.

marc2003 · 7 Aug 2016 at 20:08

Harsh for the American. Leading all the way down and ends up 4th.

Craig1981 · 7 Aug 2016 at 20:09

Yeah, she's gotta be gutted. She just couldn't keep ahead of that chase group at the last stretch. Poor Lizzie as well, she tried her best.

Pigeon_Killer · 7 Aug 2016 at 20:15

Was that exactly the same spot Jones went down yesterday?

I thought it was yeah.

No news is worrying.

Craig1981 · 7 Aug 2016 at 20:20

Yeah it looked to be about the same area. I wish they'd give us some indication what her condition is.

Pigeon_Killer · 7 Aug 2016 at 20:21

Looking forward to Djokovic vs Potty in a minute, think there could be a shock in that game.

Yeah, looked like she face planted then went over herself. Hopefully she just rag dolled because she knocked herself out

Psycho Ned · 7 Aug 2016 at 20:23

I've probably watched too many motorsport events where bad stuff has happened but when they don't say everythings ok pretty quickly everything usually isn't ok.

Hopefully because it's in a bit of a rural area the news just hasn't got down to the finish yet.

booyaka · 7 Aug 2016 at 20:26

fingers crossed for her but looks awful
