not sure how it happened...
I only caught the impact itself
on the first lap Terri was hammering pretty hard
it looks like she was trying to make a pass on the outside line
her choice of what path was met with what must have been a divot or a sink hole
she went over the handlebars and straight for the water
in an "I wish I had my camera set to video and pointed in that direction" sort of way I watched
I watched rather than record something worth of an intro from Bob Saggett
Terry went over the bars and landed in a roll
her body moved in what looked like a yoga head stand
she rolled forward and raised her feet to the sky with her legs bent
when she got vertical her head went into the pond as if she were bobbing for apples
and well... she pulled her head out of the water
gather her wits and her bike and got back into the race
great job Terri!
that is the spirit of the racer!
Bruce got a shot of Terri coming up from the dunking booth
