Busted Dog

Marcus Burghardt hits a dog in the 2007 Tour de France and his front carbon rim collapses. Poor doggie.

Kestrel vs Dog

I just recieved this story and photo from Jim:

Here is pic of my Kestrel after a run in @ 28 mph with a 70# German Shepherd pup. I was running a Spinergy Rev-X in front that came out relatively unscathed (dog hair caught between spokes). When I came to, the dog's owner was holding a towel on my chin. Lots of blood! Since the crash, that Kestrel was riden another 15,000 miles.

Ouch. I wouldn't have thought a Rev-X was stronger than a carbon fork. Anyway, I'm glad Jim was ok.
