Yeah someone posted about this a while back. There were additional photos. If I remember correctly the feeder f*ed up royally. He tried to hang on to the guy which caused him to go under the wheels.

A few inches the other way and he could've likely died on the road. Still looks like he'll be miserable for quite some time. Ugh.

This is why you don't see too many Asian pro cyclist. They're too busy trying to fix their support cars while they ride.

Hate VW's. The whole commissioned by Hitler thing is a real turn off. Originally designed by Ferdenand Porshe though, that almost makes up for it. I'll keep my Jeep. Anybody know if that guy's alright?

The A2 Jetta went on to become one of the first Volkswagen models produced in China by Volkswagen's second joint venture partner First Auto Works in 1991-1997.
