GO ON IAN!Video: Three peaks comedy faceplant
Nothing much to say about this really, just watch and enjoy this fantastically executed face plant. It's a perfect ten, we reckon. If anyone knows who Ian is, let us know and we'll send him some road.cc socks for his star turn...

Well done to Ian for being a good sport -- love the smile on his face in that photograph!
I just had a nice chat to ian on the phone and I've bundled him up a jersey and some socks to go in the post. He's unsure about his new celebrity status but deffo being a good sport about it. Yesterday when we put the story up the vid had received 134 views, now it's on 11,000... who knows, it might 'do a Joey'
I second that. I took a look at this years photos! Oh man it looked extra extra tough due to the weather conditions. Hats of to Ian and all who entered and finished.
Some cracking photo's from British cycling's flickr
