Joe Feeesh Posted July 20, 2015 Share Was the incident where the kid ran in front of Lombardi reported to the race commissioner? No ways!! Did a kid seriously run in front of him?? No urine involved was there?? Bummer! I heard Mathew was in the lead, what happened Lance, did you see it?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lance Cruz Posted July 20, 2015 Share "I heard Mathew was in the lead, what happened Lance, did you see it??" At the end of the flow/jump section, where it crossed the jeep track, adjacent to the Maties stables. I was standing there with a mate who had raced earlier. Matt did some hero cadence braking, as the kid froze as soon as everyone started shouting (and he was right in the middle of the transition section), and had to dismount. I thought the kid was a goner. But Lombardi has skills. It cost him dearly, though...Blame the parent. Boy was probably about nine- or ten-years old, had substantial eye glasses (as someone with sight issues, I noticed). Was crying as his mom took him away. I felt they should have gone to the commissioner and made a declaration, and he should have met Matt afterwards. To get closure. Perhaps he did. But it was a very unfortunate state of affairs, which could easily have been an outright tragedy, if someone of lesser (than Matt) skills had been involved.
