Pretty sure every country has laws against reckless endangerment leading to serious injuries. He's lucky he's getting a cyclists' punishment. In the Netherlands there have been criminal cases against football player causing a career ending injury.
In a similar vein, are there actually official rules against riding another rider off a cliff? Cause if there's not someone should really get on that.
His penalty is much more than 9 months. As with Jackobsen, he will likely never recover professionally. You may want to pursue him criminally. I doubt Dylan would even fight you on that.
I just sit back in wonder at the idea that cycling... and life in general can never be sanitized to the approval of some.
Maybe we eliminate sprint finishes in pro cycling, period. Also, eliminate descents... because we don’t want the crazies to ride others off a cliff, now do we?
Dylan made a gigantic mistake which resulted in nearly killing a colleague. He’s paying for it in ways you don’t seem to acknowledge, which is unfortunate.
