Default Sabie Classic

Just back from the Sabie MTB Classic. Got third place for the Grand Master Men in the 35km. Saw a couple of nasty accidents on that awesome downhill. A girl came off on a bend with what looked like a broken jaw. Hope she's OK.

She was holding her face with both hands. When she let go of her face her lower jaw dropped some cms. (At that point another "helpful' rider asked her, "Does it hurt?"!!!) The medics were on their way very quick before I reached the next marshall.

Sorry no pix! Sabie Classic should be on the World of Endurance this week.
