Its fine to be angry about people stupidly causing wrecks.
Agreed.

I dont know why other posters feel the need to say something about someones "temper" or how they shouldnt feel "angry". It is also very funny when themselves get outraged over the tiniest and most irrational type of things. Doesnt make sense. It must be a one-way street, I guess.

The riders often look behind to be safe and see a spot to pull out because they don't have any gas
It's a stupid move which has caused a number of crashes and dangerous situations.
The best way to get out of the way is to keep your line while slowing down progressively.

Looking behind in the bunch is something cycling coaches and DSes should teach to never do.

Chapeau Dainese - despite the crash, a 2nd GT win of the year. Next year off to Tudor so maybe no more GT's for a while. Ganna showed that he's a better TT-er then sprinter (despite G re-doing his Giro lead out for Cav).
Groves's crash has left the green jersey competition open which is some consolation for the GC lockdown by Jumbo.

Yep, never look back. As soon as you do you've lost equilibrium and your body compensates by shifting weight to the other side. This was an especially annoying crash.

Lol. I was surprised because Netserk is usually very level-headed. I didn't say he shouldn't feel angry, just that I didn't.

Absolutely and hold your line always holds true. And there is a sub-sect in cycling that mounts rearview mirrors on their helmet or bicycle. Looking behind you is always bad form, on the run in of a pro sprint.. Come on man!!
