For The Third Time Daniel Chavez Wins The Florida State Road Race Cycling Championship Avoiding Another Catastrophic Cycling Crash

The 2010 Florida State Road Race Cycling Championship was held in Ocala, FL on the same racing course where this event has been held for the past three years. The Ocala racing course is a 5-mile hilly loop with a long downhill all the way to the finish line.

Every year when these cycling races come down to a final field sprint there have been catastrophic crashes on the downhill toward the finish line at speeds of over 50mph. Some of the cyclists involved in these cycling crashes had to be rushed in an ambulance to the hospital with injuries so severe that they were mistaken for motorcycle crash victims.

The 2010 Florida State Championship Road Race (Age Group 19-35) also came down to a final field sprint, and for the third time there was another catastrophic cycling crash on the downhill approaching the finish line, and for the third time Daniel Chavez won this dangerous cycling race, but this time followed by Allison Anjos in second and Brian Domby in third in the 30-34 age group.

We wish that in the future, the race organizers change the location of the finish line or choose a different racing course for this cycling race.

  • Dios Gracias...for your safety

  • @ic2015 thank you

  • What happened at 8:05 when you went off the road? Were you making room because you had nothing left?

  • @Cableguy008 I was working for my brother the whole race, keeping the group together by chasing down the attacks so 1K to go when I was there at the front my legs cramped hard and as I was going back the group almost crashed but they saved it and to avoid it I went onto the grass. Thank God for me, because as you can see a few seconds ahead there was a massive crash.

see all
