Re: This ride meeting: 
Dirtworks Classic 2008

Having a great time on my 1st 100km race until about 60 km in when a rock flew into my front 2 chain rings an bent them to such an extent the chain would no longer go round. I tried, rather aimlessly, to fix this but it was obvious my race was over. My only consolation was I had done enough for a 50 km time check. Around 2:31 so I was pretty happy with how I was going. Oh well there's always next - I'm a sucker for punishment!!!

Cheers Lincoln

Good show at half way - damn bad luck Linco, but as you say, always next time. Coming to the Doctor?

Silly suggestions... you still had your big ring, right? At that point in the race it's all you need! Eye-wink

Word is Hamish (winner) had a borken front derailleur and was stuck in big ring all race.
