Stage 3 of the 2023 Tour of Turkey was the Queen Stage of this year's edition of the race and whilst many were talking about the sheer brutality of the day's final climb, it was the descent on the way their that looked most terrifying.

On roads of questionable quality, riders descending were met with very little protection at the side of the roads on corners, with seemingly only the brakes of the riders' bikes being trusted to prevent anyone flying over some of the sheer drops.

Check out in the video below as one rider takes on the descent in a particularly gingerly fashion!
