I took this some time back in Connecticut. The story goes like this. These are die hard athletes and nothing stops them. It had rained for hours but was expected to be a nice day, so the race was on. The one in the blue thought he knew everything and tried to ride his bike through the mud. All the others knew enough to carry their bikes through it. But - check out the spectator on the top right. He got it too - the fence caved in from the crowd pushing to see what happened - and down went the guy in red. Photo taken by Laurel Jacobs (Estados Unidos) - People/Family/Friends
