I was browsing pictures of the National Championships and ran across some sequence shots of the start of our XC race. You can see from the first picture it's a wide start gate and everything looks calm. Then all of sudden the guy on the right of the picture lost his wheel and fell into the rider next to him who eventually took out about 5 of us. You can finally see me in the final picture on the right hitting the deck. Other riders were able to go around and continue on as the 5 of us untangled our bikes. The guy that eventually won the race is the one out front in the 2nd picture gaining huge time over us on the floor. 2 of the top 4 riders, including myself, were caught up in this crash.
