Multiple fractures, a shattered femur, and broken back still wont stop Mountain bike innovator Aaron Chase from getting back on the bike. In this tech tip, he teaches us how to ride backwards.
Unfortunately, one of the best riders to do it on the mega ramp and last year's champion, Chad Kagy, came down hard on his leg and would only complete a run worthy of third place earning him the bronze medal. This made the race for gold quite exciting, however, as it seemed to be anyone's game with Kagy only completing a "safety run" (a run to secure a solid score, usually as a first run, to allow for a back-up score in case of not landing more difficult runs).
And so that race..
