The Paris-Roubaix cycle race held in northern France is one of the most grueling and dramatic ones ever. But this year, something happened that took the tension and drama to a whole other level. For some reason, the race course crosses paths with a train track. And as the cyclists were passing through that intersection, suddenly the barriers came down, warning the traffic about a fast, oncoming train. And then this happened.
We’re just happy no one got hurt.
