Froome Becomes a Ninja and Other Cool News from the World of Cycling

Another Monday is here and our news from the world of cycling with it! So, what did you miss?

Froome becomes a ninja

The British pro surprised us all during the team presentation at the Saitama Criterium in Japan. Froome put on a yellow ninja outfit and showed some very respectable star-throwing skills to the crowd, as he managed to get a bullseye with the very first shot. Plans for the life after sporting career are settled then? Definitely a nice plan B, champ!

Penny-farthing bike race crash

The annual High Wheel Race in Frederick, Maryland, is the only one of its kind in America and as such, it is full of unique action. I mean, how often do you see two penny-farthings crash?

While the accident might look serious, one of the riders even managed to finish the race and both of them have already signed up for next year.
