I had two crashes on the first lap one with a thorn bush too, leg got shredded,I have scars on top of scars now a true sign im a s**te mtb'er
I dont know where it went wrong after that, lost a lot of places and found it very hard to to reel them back, dragged myself into 17th pos.
8th place overall in the league
maybe I'll move up to S2 will have to see now.
