Hair-raising moment cyclists are thrown off bikes in front of a car after
hitting pothole

This horrific video below shows a cyclist trying to put his water bottle
back in the cage when apparently a pothole throws him from his bike in
another rider.

Fortunately, the riders were lucky not to be run over by the car behind.
Watch the incident in the video below:

The fairy-cyclists survive, due not to their own (lack of) skills and
common sense, but entirely due to the good sense and caution of the
driver of the following motor vehicle.

Had he been behaving like a typical fairy-cyclist, he'd have been about
three feet behind the rearmost fairy-cyclist and would have had no time
or space to react (cf, recent video from Australia, "excused" by those
in the know because a fairy-cycle-chain had snapped and apparently
caused a fairy-cycle pile-up).
