VIDEO: Lotta Henttala hits the deck hard trying to avoid the cobbles on World Championship ITT

One of the first riders out on the course in the women's elite World Championship individual time-trial, Finland's Lotte Henttala was given a rude introduction to the cobbles of the final climb.

Looking to set an early marker down, Henttala was visibly tiring towards the line.

With her front wheel nudging the curb however, Henttale was brought to the ground with a bump.
