    Default Best of crashes from Singapore Mountain Bike National Championships 2012.

    The 4ft drop down a steep hill. Even the seasoned pros were wiped out due to its illusion of being overly simple.

    *This one i think the bike fell apart upon impact.

    Other then usual cuts and bruises, nothing they havent experienced before. All were required to go for license to participate in the event if not wrong.

    Anyway, this might be the last time as i heard the area will be re-developed.

    Not sure, think there is an easier but slower path instead of the drop. Also usually during final race runs, the cyclist would be pushing themselves to their limits to perform their best, for some, way over their limits.
