Hunter Williams - Ride Report

Hunter Williams - GNCC The General

March 18, 2012


Well I finally started a GNCC without dumping it in the first corner! I had been getting good starts off the line at harescrambles only to have someone pile up in front of me or me just dump it. Maybe I should have just run up to the corner and thrown it over looking back on the whole day:-)


The GNCC General was overall a decent day. I was around 8th or so on the start. When I came around scoring I was in 4th so I was pretty happy to see that. We went about 4 more miles and came to this bad bottleneck where I chose a bad line and hung up on a log and probably 10 people got around me. I shook it off and just kept on pushing. Lap 2 I came around in about 10th and Dad pitted me. Then the next two laps I was running 6th.


Florida was a cake walk compared to the rough conditions at Aonia. The General was beat up badly and was way too high speed for my liking.


On Lap 6 I knew I was about 3 minutes behind with 2 laps to go and had just put my head down to start charging. I was feeling good about my conditioning and was still strong. I passed a couple of positions then things went wrong. Around mile marker 7 my bike started cracking and bogging out. I was really concerned if I could make it another lap! I went on and kind of bobbled and all of a sudden the bike went dead. I kicked and kicked. Nothing was happening. Luckily when I pushed it over the next little hill there was a course worker with a ATV and he hooked me up and pulled me back to the pit. I was pretty bummed about it all because I was just starting to feel good and better lines were starting to show.


Something let go in the top end, which is unusual for the tough 300XC. It was my first mechanical DNF in 2 years of a lot of racing.


We will find out soon what happened! Just more motivation to do better at Steele Creek! Braaapp!
