really sorry this happened to you. You were flying that morning and I actually figured you'd gotten Whiskey Throttle and did yourself in. I've followed this race for a long time and have seen it over and over. Glad that wasn't the case.

I'm sure you'll get to it, but I'm really interested in finding out why such a small get off would do so much damage. Of course they aren't the machine nor is the racing the same, but my Husqvarna TC250 and I have hit the ground and trees well over two hundred times and never hurt a thing except pride and body work.

Also, thanks for being so frank. It would be awfully easy to crawl into a corner or blame a perro or something.
