Title: NJMP Videos May 1-2

Found this on youtube today.  What do you'll think?  Did he really try to take him out?

Well, there's no real way to tell what was actually going through that rider's mind.... but I added my .02 on youTube.... for those interested, here's what I had to say:

"Looks to me like an overly aggressive attempt to weave & make it harder to get a draft, not necessarily an intentional swerve into the other rider in an attempt to hit him or make contact... Never the less, predictability is key, and that kinda move isn't predictable and can lead to injuries. But I don't think this incident should be something that should turn one off of racing with CCS. I raced NJMP this weekend as well and had a very positive experience."

Looked like a bonehead move to me by the leading rider.

I have seen the pro's do much worse than that.
