  10. not sure if this is the right forum to chat about the race and little incidents, 53km into the ride and some Kn%b clips my back wheel, ends up riding onto the wheel buckling it, end of the race for me, 50 plus race rides and first crash so the ego is more bruised than my thigh that was gouged by the saddle. surely a rider is responsible for his own front wheel, move over or back down if bunch riding makes you nervous. thanks to the support team for collecting me rather quickly and almost every rider to pass asking if i was ok - must be Northern suburbs okes cos you hardly get that from some riders in the South.
