My wife took a nasty tumble on the 20km route this weekend after a lady swerved for glass on the trail sending her flying . She landed heavily on her side and shoulder with her head whip-lashing onto a sizeable rock. Luckily the helmet worked as advertised and she only suffered a mild concussion with some bruising to her hip, shoulder and leg.

 

We would like to thank all the people that stopped to help her up and tried to get her going again with a tube and her bomb. She did have an extra tube which we forgot in her saddle bag in the car :blush: .

 

After the adrenaline rush subsided she realised that she would not be able to continue and a big :clap: Thank You :clap: to the medics on the quad and motorcycle that patched her up and helped her to the finish area.

Yip, I can also say thanks for the assistance. I had a mechanical at the 20km mark and couldn’t finish the marathon. I was picked up by a bakkie and taken back to the venue.
