Like I Said…
Crash, Visalia crit, sequoia classic nrc 51 Comments »The bike owns you-
Nasty crash in Visalia. Ended up with a big hematoma on the side of my right ass, messed my middle finger up pretty good along with a variety of other road rash type injuries. Thank god for helmets and glasses though as my head is what took the brunt of the fall. The helmet is cracked in several places. Oakley racing jackets probably saved my eye from serious injury, someone’s pedal would have ended up touching my cornea otherwise. Thanks Oakley!
I’ll spend the next week recovering and getting ready for the next go round, coach says there’s nothing to worry about. So I’ll do just that, NOT WORRY! 
Here’s a link to the race video- Cycle To. I felt pretty good and went off the front for a few laps early on, maybe 2 laps in, and then the crash…
Seriously though, I love this sport. There’s just enough blood, tears, and suffering to appease my inner sicko.
Redlands here I come!
