French championship MTB-O Relay (23.10.2011)

A flat tyre on the downhill singletrack after 5th control ruined the race. Stopped several times 5-8th to pump , finally had to change innertube at the spectator control. 5 minutes to change, 2 min pumping and very slow riding on flat tyre 3 min . I won 20 sec on the DH single (it was fun though) but lost more than 10 min. Lesson learned: rock hard tyres, 3 bars minimum!
