Wow that picture in the article you posted seems to show his handlebars at the exact moment they broke off! Anyway they are at a WEIRD angle to the headtube and rest of the bike!

He was near the back of the leading pack when the crack was heard around the world.

Anyway they are at a WEIRD angle to the headtube and rest of the bike!Correct me if I'm wrong, but the handlebars look fine to me. As you will notice, his bike is leaning a fair amount to his right, even though his body is pretty straight -- which makes the bars look at a odd angle to his body.

Kevan's right. That was earlier; different set of cobbles.

He was in about 10th place when he veered.

Between GH and TH, who has had more spectacular mishaps? For me it's a tie.
