These racers got caught up in one seriously nasty crash at the Steve Henshaw International Gold Cup Road Races at Oliver’s Mount in England recently…

Around nine or ten bikes end up hitting the ground in this crash, which occurred on the first corner during a heat at the Steve Henshaw International Gold Cup Road Races.

Thankfully, most of the riders seem to come away from the crash uninjured (except for the guy in white/black who looks like he broke something in his leg, judging by the way he was limping) and a few were quick to get back on their bikes.

In fairness, you know it’s not going to be good when the commentator describes the scene as “a bowling alley with bikes everywhere…”
