Crash

Here is how Mark describes the crash (see the previous post). I copied it from an email he sent:

"Steep descent that leads into a big jump. I've hit it many times before, but never as fast as yesterday morning. It turns out, it's a kicker (once your front end clears, the rear gets kicked up)...and if you hit it hard enough, you get thrown over the bars. Still learning. Fact is, 3 months ago I never had the nerve to shoot down the descent. I've improved a lot and I knew that the next get-off would be big."
