During the sprint finish of stage 2 of the Tour of Qatar yesterday, Tom Steels crashed at the front of the peloton and ended up breaking his collarbone. Fairly common road cycling injusry in all honesty. Well, apparently Mr. Steels decided to give Graeme Brown a piece of his mind later in the day during dinner. See Mr. Brown seems to be the rider that caused Mr. Steels to crash during the sprint. Well, Mr. Steels gave Mr. Brown this speech and then told him to "go home". It seems that all of the other racers in the room followed Mr. Steel's lead and also shouted "go home" to Mr. Brown for his poor racing etiquette. So, if you were Mr. Brown how does that make you feel when all of your competitors are telling you to leave? Ouch.

Here is the story.

Cycling is in itself yet just another soap opera. But I still love it.
