A peaceful critical mass ride in the city of Porto Alegre, in south eastern Brazil on Friday evening turned into something much nastier when a motorist accelerated through a group of 130 riders, hitting 20 of them and putting 9 in hospital.

I don't think I can bring myself to watch that. I used to be an amateur time triallist cyclist and our club did a regular Sunday training 'club-run' in which there were often as many as 20 riders riding side by side in pairs and all very disciplined. The thought of someone purposely driving into the bunch is horrifying and beyond words.

That's horrific.  That's at least 20 counts of attempted murder in my book.

Video unavailable but I wouldn't have any objections to those twenty cyclists getting their revenge on him!

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.
