I know this feeling….

Mark Webber has revealed he was driving with a broken shoulder in the final four races of this year’s Formula One season.

The Red Bull driver’s dreams of becoming the first Australian to win the F1 title since 1980 faded during that period as teammate Sebastian Vettel captured the world championship.

Webber revealed the injury, sustained in a mountain bike accident, in his new book and said he had to have pain-killing injections before races in Japan and Korea.

He refused to blame the injury for his failure to win the title and kept it secret from his team boss Christian Horner.

Webber sustained the injury a week before the Japanese Grand Prix in early October but the fine fracture could not be treated.

It was the second time in under two years that Webber had suffered an injury while training on a mountain bike.

What do you do when being a formula one driver isn’t dangerouse enough?

Having too much fun for riding pics this week but here is the scene after, stone, cold, chillin’. Summer is awesome. Click the image for the recap yo!


This is post hilarious.

Just in case you thought it was a fake here is the reverse angle.

This is a cool video I spotted on the pink bike front page. The top-tube angle is sweet.


This has been around for ages but it’s pretty damn rad. I’d love to see this guy roast a berm.
