Different location once came across a cyclist sprawled across the ground who had misjudged the V and presumably was travelling at some speed.
REmind me of going through an A-frame gate a year or so ago just before a group of teenage lads on "mountain bikes" arrived at it from the opposite direction
One of them was a way behind his mates
being young and male he decided to show off and do a long wheelie
by then time he got to the A-frame his mates were already through and waiting for him
He decided that if he continued the wheelie up to the gate then his handlebars would clear the top and he could get through like that
and - clearly - look like a total legend
when he got to about 4-5 feet from the gate he suddenly realised that his judgement MAY have been somewhat out (not sh*t Sherlock!!!) and jammed his brake on and crashed in a total non-legend manner
as you can tell I hung around to watch
his mates - presumably once they were pretty sure he was kinda OK - were wetting themselves laughing
anyway - for information - you probably can;t wheelie any bike through an A-frame gate
