The picture of that cut / wound is insane. 99.999% of mountain bikers would have stopped and get into ambulance. Massive respect for Amy as well as Candice for doing what they did and still winning the stage.

Praying that she will be able to continue and finish the race

i've seen it all. send the pic let us see

Is there still daily highlights on supersport? If so, what time?

 

Otherwise I guess on YouTube channel later on demand

I think it’s on sa6 at 10 but the race website has highlights too as does YouTube

Am chuffed for Andrei. so much respect for him being on that pace, I was sweating just watching. 

It is still a long way to go, Nino not light on partners.

And Speed Racing will help Nino to put his partner under even more pressure.

I think Speed Racing are everyone favorite team atm. They just go balls to the walls at every stage. no filter come interview time. Say it as it is 😆

@DJuice @ChrisF have a question. 

is it better to ride with your mouth shut and hope you don't blow, or tell Nino to ease up on the pace a bit and risk blowing. Do you think he gets a word in regarding strategy?

Crazy. not adding the actual hospital (unless it is requested). It is quite hectic

Tough as nails. They make them mos toughererer in SA. But seriously, if that's a legit pic I saw, then that's crazy stuff. Not sure which pain meds strong enough she can take for tomorrow (Doc Wakefield?). I'm assuming she will definitely at least start in orange....and then see what happens. Think Candice can guide the team well to the finish, defend the amazing lead, as well as harness the huge inner strength of Amy. Holding thumbs for the pair.

Just watched her bike set up, she is running 2.25's Wonder how much of the field are on thinner tyres...

Amy's arme arm made Czech mtb news (you'll need to use Google translate) ...  https://mtbs.cz/clanek/tezka-prvni-etapa-cape-epic-2023-zamichala-poradim/kategorie/popis-xcm#.ZBirpexBxbV

She is also a fair bit smaller and lighter than most, so would likely get the same kind of performance out of 2.25 tyres. 
Plus a little bit of weight saving.
