Crashing Hard in a Criterium & New Lessons

In this video, I will share with you a cycling crash I recently had at my local criterium race. Riding the Specialized Allez Sprint with a Shimano 105 groupset and Enve 6.7 wheels, I come off my road bike at around 45 km per hour. This crash is a new lesson. While getting close to the wheel in front of you enables you to converse energy and is a common criterium tip, my lesson here is that safety comes first. In this crash, I am lucky not to hit my head or break any bones!
