I was also part of a split but the bunch caught up with us again. Decided to hang in closer to the back and that was when the crash happened. Around the 43km mark. Real bad one. One guy looked like he broke an ankle and waited for the ambulance. Felt for another lady that also looked real bad. I was just glad that my bike is fine! :-)

Although I really enjoyed the race until I crashed... I think it was my last Macsteel race. Started in the DL group and the bunch got massive really quickly. Saw some CL riders in there as well. Long story short... The guy riding in front of me clipped the handlebars of his neighbor at 40km mark and a lot of the DL group riders was part of an awful crash. Lost the group so decided to finish the race riding solo but my arm got 8 stiches and I'm one very sore lady today. But thanx for a well organised race! Can't complain about that.

Do yiu still have the entry??
