No, not the VX!:bwgy:
Has anyone here been watching the Tour De Suisse? Yesterdays stage finish ended with a 50mph sprint pile up...check it out (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7wL7Phnf9eE&feature=related). And you thought Nascar(;puke2;) was good.

Amazingly all involved were relatively uninjured except for road rash (one had a possible fractured hip though). Bad thing is that most are expected to be at the start line of the Tour De France on July 3rd...not a lot of time to be 100% healed.

Nope, its all part of a mass sprint. Sprinters are a different breed and take huge risks to get a stage win. You will never see any of the major contenders for the overall win mixing it up in the sprints...its just not worth the risk.
