I really appreciate the TORN crew and those from my group (Chet, Jeff, Rodney, & Randy) who came to my aide at the end of race 4 on Saturday.
On the last lap, my XR stalled as I was climbing out of the 2nd creek crossing before the finish and I slid back down into the water. I didn't want to create a bottle-neck for the other racers so I waited it out. Several great folks helped tow me up the bank and took turns trying to re-light my 650.

Everyone was very patient & helpful, and it made all the difference!
(And yes, my electric-start envy just got alot worse.)
