"This race was definitely a great race. I came off the launch and my bike stood straight up 12 o'clock and something happened in the gearbox. I was grabbing my upshifts going up the hill and went to grab a downshift going into the chicane and the shifter wouldn't move. It was stuck in sixth gear all the way to turn seven when I finally kicked the thing and it went. I fought back from ninth place. The race was really hectic."
