I believe he slipped off the left pedal first and that percipitated the fall. He was trying to pedal harder and may have partially gone out of the saddle. Possibly he wasn't used to that mode of powering a bike and messed up. -- Regards, Joerg http://www.analogconsultants.com/ |

At first glance, I thought his left pedal spindle had broken - but your explanation makes more sense. -- Pete Cresswell |
