It was not a hard crash but I must have had hit my knee badly on a sharp rock! I was in a little bit of shock when I saw my skin, cut like a triangle. Even my knee bones got some fresh Canadian air for a while, but 20min afterwards it was all stitched up. I went straight back on my bike again, finished my uncompleted lap plus more riding on the road.

The whole afternoon I spent in bed, not being able to move my leg, plus the pain hit me hard throughout the night. Next morning I knew I will not be able to race, but I still tried to go on my bike since I always have a spark of hope, even if the chance is so small…

I did not watch the race. Instead I spent my time in a coffee shop, frustrated, drinking coffee, eating croissants or spend some time at a lake.

Now I am travelling back home and hope to be back to full strength in the next few days.
