Cory and I were casualties in a crash on the last lap in the 3/4 race. We both had good legs and were toward the front in good position going into the first corner of the last lap. Two guys ahead crossed wheels and went down collecting a few other riders with them, myself included. I had nowhere to go so I rode over the top of the pile. Cory managed to slow down enough not to hit the deck but his chances at a good finish were over. I have a puncture wound in my right butt cheek, a scraped up left forearm and got stabbed in my left quad by my chainring but other than that not too bad. The bike is repairable. Scratched up bartape, shift lever, pedal and skewer all on the left side. Broke two spokes on my front wheel. Both bike and body survived well enough to ride another day.
