It rained as it usually does. The course of the cross-course,
went around the ski-meadow.
After 5 rounds of the 1h race, I rode one last time on the downhill
ski lift trace and made a serious technical ride mistake.
I crashed, made a somersault over the handle bar and landed in
the mud, and this time it crashed really hard. The section worker
shouted something from: stay down but I didn´t want to loose so
many places. So, back on the bike and rode to the finish-line.
In the finish-area, my friend Holgi, had to lift me from the bike,
because I wasn´t able to do so, as a results of all the pains
Results: Finished not on the last place, bike is not damaged!
The rider Tossy III and Rockwood V with a torn shoulder joint...no
cure without an operation.
Now I got as an extra for my carbone bike, some titanium in my
shoulder… Wait´n see. I hope I´m back in shape in spring…I hope…
