Cross Race Accident Tonight

I have been fatigued lately and I wanted to take it easy. I took a few warm up laps and discovered I am way out of practice dismounting my bike and getting back on. No problem, I would just go easy.

At the gun I let the entire field go. As I looked up I noticed that the pace at the front was not that fast and if I would of been on top of my game and didn't have a 24 hour ride coming up, I feel I would of been  up there.  Soon I got into a rhythm.

So I picked racers off one at a time and worked my way to upper mid pack and was going pretty good. A rider crashed and I waited till he got back on, he was doing well and was a good pacing partner.  Then it happened!

I came around a gravel corner, deep just plowed gravel, and my front tire washed out.  I went down hard and drove my knee into the ground.  I crashed hard onto my shoulder and I hurt my back so bad it took me quite a while to get going ( a long time).  I don't know how I finished but I did.

So now the RMVQ is questionable but at the very least I will support my friends and we will have a good weekend anyway.  I am real bummed I may not be able to ride.  I will Keep ice, clean it up and asses in the morning.  Good Night!
