UCI track worlds, Day 3 I think? Either the womens points or scratch race. That is Shelly Evans’ bike. She walked away eventually…

This is the points race at the recent Track World Championships. The Aussie is Belinda Goss who got up to get the bronze in this race. Check out the BMC – broken in two!

This was a woman’s race at World Track Championships in Copenhagen this weekend. I believe it was the scratch race. Big, wicked pileup. Knocked out several riders, including an american.

Edit: That fractured frame belonged to American Julie Leth who performed a stunning endo to earn that broken bike.

I’ve seen a few head tubes break off at the welds, but I’ve never seen a “metal” bike do it quite like that.
