Team GB cyclists suffered a horrific crash at the European Championships on Friday.
The British representatives hoped to claim gold in Munich but their hopes came quite literally crashing down. The incident occurred when a slip in the team sprint event caused the women’s team to fall off their bicycles and out of contention.
Team GB enjoyed a difficult start to begin the event as they false started on their first attempt. After they appeared to have ridden their luck and gotten away with it, their fortune began to turn in a way no British fan wanted heading into the race.
