So was spectating at IMNZ on the weekend and the bike is two laps, second lap is a few k’s longer than the first , anyways i saw a bmc roll into town after the first lap , pretty sure he had cracked his seatpost as he had that and the seat i his hand , anyway later on i saw him roll back into town after the SECOND LAP.So approx 90k’s with no seat … RESPECT!
Apparently it broke with around 130km’s of the bike remaining. Fair play to the guy!
Yeah, I didn’t see it, but I heard about from some others, and saw a photo of him on another site.
Bib 937. Turns out he went 5:29 for the ride, and still managed a 3:48 run for a 10:16ish finish. BAMF!
Pic!
.
I’ll bet he’s one obstinate son of a gun as well.
That hurts just thinking about it.
And a 5:28
Yeah, I saw him on the road and thought he was going to be a disappointed racer. Kudos to finishing, super kudos for the finish time.
