So the events in Rotorua had me looking back at the world champs race from 06.
Hill does the deed and wins it like the hero he is, but Nathan Rennie comes down last and just as he drops down the wooden bridge with the inside or outside near the bottom, a big ass rock rolls across the track causing him to slightly swerve to avoid it. It looks like somebody rolled it on the track.
This has me wondering if anyones race run has been ruined by this kind of stuff?
Has Rennie ever talked about it?
I obviously think someone doing that on purpose is awful,
But i also believe the lifestyle was wilder than the riding before Hill came along and forced everyone to up the game.
Strictly talking world cup and world champs here.
Has anyone any old stories of this kind of stuff happening back in the day?
33 minutes is the rock incident.
