I don't know what it is. I just can't seam to get a break lately when it comes to racing. Something always goes wrong. It's either I either start off feeling great and then I start feeling like crudd, my bike brakes or I crash! Yesterday I was feeling great, better than ever! I was railing the corners and climbing like a champ. I had my nutrition down and was motoring along without a hitch. The course was changing drastically every lap because it was so loose and dry. The same corner never look the same from lap to lap but it was fun as hell anyway. I was 15 min's up over my class and it really looked like I was going to have one of those long over due GREAT DAYS! Near the top of the ridge down hill I was slinging around a corner and WOOSH, I was going down. As a result of my crash I had broken my rear brake cyclider in half. I had also put a huge kink in my chain causing and automatic transmission. My day was done! I spent the rest of my 12 hrs eating and talking to friends. I'm on the hunt for another 12hour to do in the near future so if you hear of anything, please let me know. I made haveonly made it 3 and half laps but once again I learned a lot and am better prepaired for the next one...
