It was awesome, Sam landing on his head could of been game over, and Ratboy's run was looking good until the broken ankle.
When he broke his chain and then went on to be fastest at the next split, i was shouting at the TV, then each rider down from him my daughter an I were willing him to win, but 4th wasnt too bad.
Gee was fast but he's a machine and lost any flair.
Did you see the guy doing a no hander over the last jumps?

Did ratboys foot come of the pedals or was it just the inpact of landing to flat that brock it? Maddest race i have seen in ages, not the quickest but just maddness.
