FLCC> What happened to Ryan Trebon? (Ouch!)

[Peter Ozolins]

Yes, it's really too bad (for Treefarm) that they didn't have some more 
solid fencing on that spot. I think they should have known better, but 
them's the breaks. It's normal for the course to run opposite ways right 
next to eachother, but in this spot, you were on icy mud with crazy icy 
ruts going in every direction while you're trying to make a left turn 
heading straight at the oncoming traffic and then get set up for a 
slick, off-camber right turn in about 50 feet with a mud puddle in the 
middle. The best line for Treefarm was up on the rider's right. Lots of 
other spots on the course there were no problems, but for this one the 
stars lined up... or... the star and some guy :)
