In the WXC Women's Pro divi-
sion, BABS/Fly/Maxxis Yamaha's
Becca Sheets came from way
the pace. But late in the lap, I
got bucked and the rear wheel
just floated above the ground, so
I had no braking power. I went
straight off this cliff, like third or
fourth gear. I was so lucky to
walk away from it. I landed way
down there in the woods and my
bike was in a barbed wire fence.
I was just gassed getting my bike
out of there. That took literally all
my energy right there, so I went
from top three right in the lead to
middle of XC2."
