A large number of low skilled riders travelling to close together and too fast for conditions.
The fact that a number of pictures show people with locked up and smoking rear tyres indicates amatuer hour.
The fact that the first group came over the bridge spaced out and probably running at 100km or so... then they bunched up - maybe someone fell, then the rest crested the bridge and the concertina affect took hold.
Wheels locking up, too fast and then like a huge setup of skittles.
Riding in a large group is a rather complex exercise - and without ride rules of stagger and spacing to leave room for slowing - what you see is what happens.
Where are the ride captains and lieutenants?
The sub-group captians signalling to slow down - way up stream.
Universal bike-speak to slow down is a raised hand.. we see no raised hands.
Bunch of stupid fuckers.
All of them.

Can't say it any better than RC did. Clearly a case of low rider skill and no orginization.

I can not comprehend why or how people can run into something that is clearly not moving. If an object is coming closer at the same rate of speed as it was 2 seconds ago, with common sense you should be prepared to stop. Where's the depth perception. I have a feeling if you put a wall in front of these people, every last one of them would be in it. What would happen if there was traffic? This is so retarded i'm pissed off. haha. Dumbasses!!!!

They were just applying Red Army tactics. Good thing they weren't using T89s.
