Wow, I figured it happened later right before the steep fall back.

I'd say he did pretty good if it was that jacked up that early in the race.

Of course, DC also said he was still recovering from the effects of being sick as well. I guess it was a cumulative issue that caused him to fall so back late in the race.

Hope he gets well soon, and back up to the front.

His training might be a little different than most mxers, or he is genetically predisposed to being really ripped. He could be a little overtrained, not uncommon, is it?

Umm...that was a joke (based on the countless KTM bashing threads on this and other forums).

I was thinking the same thing...having no front brake on that high-speed, hilly track...12th doesn't sound so bad now....
