Pet Owners Behaving Badly, Part Deux

Above, one of Francaise des Jeux rider Sandy Casar's souvenirs from a collision with yet another unleashed dog at the Tour de France. Unlike the Marcus Burghardt incident of a couple of weeks ago, where Burghardt had a chance to slow down, Casar was cruising as the dog bolted out of the crowd, right into his front wheel. If you saw the video of this crash, it was horrifying to watch, not just for cyclists but for pet lovers.

Remarkably, Casar shook off the collision, and rebounded to win the stage in a sprint finish, below. (AFP Photos)
