MRAN Valley of Fire Heartbreaker
First desert race since last years March Laughlin Hare Scramble.
Rode well for the first half of the first loop. Had a concentration lapse, cross rutted in loose rock path, snapped off a clutch lever. Rode in no clutch, slamming the gears and stalling when the course was blocked with riders. Pitted, found a lever, and charged for another lap. My head stopped talking to tweety bird and picked off a few guys. Rode expert pace for a limited time. Need more stamina. Rocks, dust, silt, carnage, you name it, it was a blast.
