7:50 a.m. the nightmare begins
ready to inflate the tire...
the second tubes explodes and Sergio shows his frustration
somebody calls for race support but it's going to take time
the race goes on...
finally help arrives
8:01 a.m.
finally on the road, 8:22 a.m. just getting out of town on the Queen K
barely able to catch him as he goes by near Kawaihae, notice road rash on shoulder
