Anyone have a theory as to what happened here? Malfunction? Mechanical problem with the gate? Man, I feel for those riders.

I wanna make a front fender joke so bad but that would just be plane wrong.....

It looks like the bikes flipped with the gate like the front of the tire was heavily zip tied to the gate so when the gate went down the front tire went with it and then kicked the rider up, over, and down. I know that wouldn't happen, the riders would notice but that's what it looks like. I hope that made sense. LOL

Maybe it was April 1st and there's a guy off camera laughing his a$$ off.

what I think happened was they blew the whistle to go but didnt drop the gate or at least not all the way?

At least they all did it together...whats the old saying...misery loves company?
