Can't watch from here but is that the turn at Chatel that they all missed and followed each other over teh fence, through a tree and into a field?

Sounds like the one.
I thought when you go jumping around like that you would check the course first.
I bet they will next time.

Amazingly no one seems hurt. Don't know if that's down to the bodyarmour, good landings or maybe the sproingy trees.

Typical badly signposted Sustrans route...

Theres a couple that look like they have some slightly impacted nads though.

Yeah . . .
I'd have expected the course to have a 'slow and inspect' route as well, so you could drop down slowly and learn the lines.

I don't know for sure but suspect it does.
Some younguns' though, ride like some younguns' drive- they're indestuctible until it goes wrong so just throw themselves into it ::-)

I think it's more a case of riding like idiots of all ages tend to drive: someone made a mistake about the route and ended up in the trees, and everyone behind saw the person in front go that way, so assumed they could do the same.
