Hancock ride report
Short version of a real short ride..... Turned out to be just Brad and I. We started out around 9:15 and went off into the wonderful stuff up there. I was out front with Brad right behind me as usual barking at my back tire as we passed a bunch of slower riders so I picked up the pace and pulled away from him and passed several riders until I came to the first signed turn and waited for him. Well the riders I passed came out and no sign of Brad so I started asking if anyone saw him and one guy said he was OK but stuck off the trail and just then I got a text from Brad saying "Broken Radiator". Apparently he went slightly off the trail and railed a tree stump with his right side Rad so that was the end of the day. I can tell you it was quite exciting to ride the wrong way for the 1.5 miles I needed to back track to get him you should have seen the looks I got :nener: . He was only .4 miles into the course when it happened. Good news is no injuries and we'll ride again this weekend.
Hope to see you all at Burma Sat.
