Did Bernhard Eisel run in the final sprint?

Okay, this from PezCyclingNews.com’s PeloPics… Is it an optical illusion or does it appear that the Columbia rider, Bernhard Eisel, is RUNNING in the sprint?  Check out the picture here. Either that or his legs are spinning so fast that you can’t see them!  Anyone know exactly what was going on here?

It was a nasty crash.  I’d be glad to be on this side of the mess on my bike or running beside it. Hope the riders suffering injuries from it will be up and going soon. A couple of big name riders left wounded.

    As one can see in the video, he nearly crashed; I guess he went out of his pedals deliberately for a “softer landing”. But he survived…
