As one who was caught up in this and as it seems came out of it worse off with a DNF for race one and then due to trip to hospital and severely sprained ankle a DNS for the second race my Sunday racing was wasted, normally i accept that racing is racing and accidents happen, but when an accident is not your fault but the result of someone else's mistake then it tends to get under your skin.
I can live with good clean passes, i can live with good hard passes, but when someone try's to make a move that is neither going to be clean or hard and is only going to end up with one result then that's bad racing and in the famous words of CS to VR "Obviously your ambition outweighs your talent."
Yes It was a "racing incident" but one that was not necessary, i am pleased that no one was seriously hurt and broken bikes can be fixed and hope that a lesson was learnt.
Congratulations to all winners and finishers.
