With the roads much dryer than was feared as we all went to bed last night, there were far fewer crashes than had been feared. Poor Paola Munoz (Chile) just plan overcooked the corner swinging back on to Broad Street. She ran out of road surface and fell into the attractive plantings along the median of the road. While the plants may have been soft, the bricks that line the planting beds certainly is not. Fortuantely, Munoz quickly grabbed her bicycle and jumped back into the race. This is no sport for the feign of heart, one has to be willing to take quite a bit of pain to succeed.
