Belgium U23 Cyclo-cross huge crash video still.JPGVideo: Big stack at start of Belgian U23 cyclo-cross championship

Well, you and 50-odd other riders, as this video from yesterday's Belgian Men's Under-23 National Cycle-Cross Championship shows, with just six riders managing to avoid getting brought down or held up in this massive stack in the opening metres of the race.

You need to "guess" the corresponding post code as well. A bit of internet sleuthing should give you options.

False advertising, if you ask me. That post didn't give way when it was hit!
