Good job, Roy!! 

I've had the same experience with stuff being all over the place in the T zone and bikes knocked around - including mine!   I am sure you were as impressed as I was.

What's next on the race/training agenda?

wow, tough day.  What happened to leave you scrambling before it even started?  But hey, there is something to be learned from every race, so all is not lost    Good work gutting it out.
