Wilmington was the first race I can remember where I never saw the front. I got a terrible start and just picked my way to the front, and only had to jump across one gap in route. By three to go I was top 20, and on the last lap I was in 8th spot in the lead out train when I slid out in a turn. I somehow did a 360 and bounced.
People told me it looked like I was break dancing. Miraculously, I have no road rash, my clothes did not get hurt and my bike is fine. Along with my ego, my butt may be bruised.
I heard Evan Fader's mom took a picture of me after the race wiping my junk with a towel and hopefully this will be my debut on the blog 'You Got Dropped'.
Damn, Chuck is even good at crashing!
ReplyDeleteJesus Christ!! You lucky S.O.B!!!!!!! Your crash caused a ripple effect in the field. Next thing I know the guy two riders ahead of me is endo'ing right in my face and I'm over the bars into the pavement!! A triple-fractured jaw, 20 stitches, and a lost tooth later I comment on this blog... You're one lucky son-of-a-gun!!
