Had a spectacular crash, right in front of a camera crew that I'd been chatting to at the start. Cleats jammed in the pedals so I was still attached and holding onto the bike when I ended right-side up at the bottom.

"If that ends up on the editing room floor I'm sending it to Worlds Funniest Videos." I heard one of them shout laughingly as I worked out which day of the week it was.

Buggered the bike up and I bent bits so I was stuck single speeding with the chain dragging, slapping and sucking for most of the course. Have a lovely collection of cuts and bruises.

I understand it will be on one of the (?extreme?) sports channels, but maybe not live as it is round one of a competition and they might just make a show with parts from all the races. Some riders are doing it with helmet mounted video cams as well, so should end up on You Tube etc. etc.
