VIDEO: Pair of ducks force riders to narrowly avoid a disastrous collision at World Cup Flamanville

As the latest round of UCI World Cup action was taking place in Flamanville on Sunday afternoon, riders were forced to dodge an obstacle that wasn't initially on any course guides.

The likes of Pim Ronhaar, Eli Iserbyt and Lars van der Haar were surprised to see a pair of ducks, casually sat in almost the middle of the course on one of the corners. Thankfully, the riders were able to just narrowly miss the birds and neither animal nor rider were injured.

Check it out in the video below!
