Bent derailer hanger. Handlebars/stem knocked 15 degrees to the left.
Got my free lap and rejoined the field, with my bars still cockeyed to the left.
Attacked.
Bridged.
Hurt.
Got caught.
Tailgunned.
7 laps to go.
Crash right in front of me in what is, unarguably, the ****ing easiest turn on the whole course. Went to the pit. No more free laps.
Rode back to the start and got pulled.
that's racing.
Edit: On the bright side, I met besposito and Kris Flatlander for the first time. Hope y'all enjoyed the race!
That's why tailgunning is risky, though I can understand why you were doing it.
Sounds like you had quite the race.
