All City Team race

The Wolfpack All City Team race went down yesterday. It was a race from the east to the beach, more specifically from Silverlake pretty much to LAX airport. It was about a 17mile route.

About halfway through a bunch of people went through a big intersection when we shouldn't have and got two motorcycle cops chasing us. I tried to dip off to the right into a parking lot and there ended up being a strip of water right where I was turning. My front wheel washed out and I slammed pretty fucking hard, got road rash on my leg, elbow, shoulder and back..got a pretty good hipper and slid about ten feet on my back and went head first into a curb and hit the curb with my neck.

I found a video online of what my crash probably looked like. I would be the guy in the yellow jersey and thats about how my crash went but instead of a guardrail it was a curb that I hit and after I slammed on my right side I flipped to my back and stayed on my back.

After that I proceeded to get up in a daze and realize a cop was right there ready to give me a ticket for going through the light. I was the "example" of the day and even though I got wrecked right in front of the cop he still gave me a ticket. Needless to say it was a crazy race. I got back up brushed off, got my head clear for a second and finished the 8 or 9 miles solo in a headwind with a vague idea on where the finish was. I had to ask about 6 people for directions. I made it and proceeded to hear people that saw it talk about how crazy my crash was.

That wasn't the only crash. Multiple people were hit by cars, front and rear. Some guy ended up in the hospital with a broken collarbone and thats not including all of the individual crashes and ones involving only other bikers. Plus flat tires, bike problems and more.

I hate to admit that it was still fun after how gnarly it sounds but it definitely was one of the craziest things I have done. Now its off to another night of Wolfpack, sore as hell but gotta keep it up.
