Flat Tire

The bad luck started during Fridays pre-ride when I flatted coming down the Firetower descent. It continued Saturday 25 miles into the race somewhere past Smith Lk when I crashed in a big mud puddle. Then with 1 mile to go my chain went between the spokes and cassette. 5 minutes later after hoping to squeek out the last podium spot I finished 17th. Full report soon.
