Then this week, a clump of grass finished the job. I just wish I didn't spend so much time trying to fix it and went with the single gear earlier.<br/><br/>It was funny coming down the descent when I finally started my second lap - bodies lying all over the ground after crashes. Crazy!

It was funny coming down the descent when I finally started my second lap - bodies lying all over the ground after crashes. Crazy!
