Had a wild ride at this year's Vegas to Reno! After getting on the bike just 10 miles before at Pit 4 in Goldfield, a wild donkey ran out in front of me leaving me no room and I ended up hitting it but riding out of it! The end result was best case scenario in my book and I was able to finish out both of my 100 mile sections, but it could have been much worse. We ended up 4th O/A on the day after a few different setbacks..
Heres's a recap of the action from Pit 4 - Pit 5

How long did it tale you to CTFD (calm the F down) & get your head back in the race?
You got lucky, full blown T-Bone and you would have been the first one there.
I see what you did there!
Damn, I need a beer. Great ride though, how did you finish?

Those are ferel donkeys that were left behind from miners back in the 1800s... they are also mean little sons of bitches and will attack you if you try to get close!
At least it didn't cost you "Fastest Man on the Planet" status while going for MXDN glory like Albertyn:
I'm guessing the bikes started ahead of everyone? Didn't look like you had many tracks ahead of yours, and it wasn't too beat up.
Or maybe it's just cause you're going so fast...
Not sure how you would ever want to get over about 30 mph after that!
