A skinny used by riders of the Don Valley Trails near Toronto was sabotaged over the weekend in an attempt to cause it to collapse under the weight of a rider. A supporting beam of the skinny was found to have been deliberately cut partway through in several places that couldn’t be seen by anyone crossing above. The damage put the structure at risk of collapsing, which could have resulted in serious injury to an unsuspecting rider.

Timothy Charles, founder of the Toronto Off-Road Biking Association warned cyclists to be on their guard and not to ride any ramps without checking them before. You can get the whole story from the Toronto Star by clicking here.

The bridge was dismantled after the cuts were found in the supports.
