Found on Riderman's train track: Nuts and Bolts
Last Friday saw an unusual incident during the "Rideman" bike race, as screws were discovered on the course just before the start. This discovery led to a mass crash during the event. The crash occurred on a different section of the race course, several hundred meters long, which was subsequently cleaned and blocked off.
The police were involved in investigating the incident, and a police spokesman confirmed the finding of the screws during the course inspection. However, no information was provided about any connection between the screw incident and a disability pass being towed away.
In addition to the screw incident, the "Rideman" race faced other challenges. Last Friday, firecrackers with nails were found on the course, and barriers were stolen. These acts of sabotage or vandalism were likely aimed at disrupting the race.
The mass crash at the "Rideman" bike race occurred on Sunday, resulting in around 100 injuries. Despite the incidents, the race continued, with French President Emmanuel Macron appointing Defense Minister Lecornu as Prime Minister.
The police have no evidence suggesting a connection between the screw incident and the mass crash at the "Rideman" on Sunday. The investigation into the incident is ongoing, with the police still seeking to determine the source of the screws and whether they were deliberately placed on the course to cause the crash.
The "Rideman" bike race, held in Bad Dürrheim, is a popular amateur cycling event that attracts participants from across the region. Despite the incidents, organisers have expressed their commitment to ensuring the safety of all participants in future events.
