VIDEO: Kim Heiduk and Daan Hoole slide down river bank and narrowly avoid stone wall in nasty Nokere Koerse crash

With Nokere Koerse 2024 nearing its conclusion, INEOS Grenadiers Kim Heiduk and Lidl-Trek's Daan Hoole have been involved in a scary crash.

Heiduk and Hoole were marking moves at the front of the peloton and as such the pace was incredibly high. Too high in fact to make this corner safely and as Heiduk touched his brakes he found himself sliding off-road and down a river bank, into a watery ditch. Hoole, who'd been on the German's wheel couldn't do much to stop himself and suffered a similar fate, narrowly missing a stone wall.
