Craven crashes out of RAS
Submitted by editor on Fri, 05/25/2012 - 10:30.Namibian cyclist Dan Craven said he hoped to be back training soon again after crashing out of the RAS cycle race in Ireland on Wednesday.
The crash came 50km before the end of the third stage when Craven was lying in fourth place in the peloton.
Two of his team mates slipped on the greasy descent and Craven saw his rear wheel slide from under him. With nowhere to go, the rest of the peloton ploughed into Craven, leaving the road strewn with bikes and bodies.
