the crash was totally unnecessary and avoidable, I'm more than a bit annoyed being involved in this. was hard getting up this morning with sore hip and neck, but cycling was easier than walking.
There were quite a few dodgy moments and silly moves throughout the evening, and mostly from the lack of experience and skill of some of the riders. It's all good to encourage people to take part, but safety of the riders is more important and they really need to learn the basic skills before taking part and putting others at risk.
