I'm sensing some BS sensationalism to the story. This was in rush hour traffic? Do you know how fast you would have to be going to fall and slide the length of 3 football fields? I'm not buying it at all, especially traveling 300 yards without hitting anything else, what are the odds?
Unless he got knocked off and the bike continued on it's wheel for another 300 yds. Even that would be hard to swallow.

You know what they say about men and measurements...definitely some exaggeration for rider to slide 100 yards at normal speeds... even with a damp surface that is a loong slide.
