Pete Basinger injured

Hey Folks,

I'm about to post up some audio from Jill Homer. She was descending Indiana Pass last night and came upon a couple of ambulances. Apparently, Pete was descending the pass and was struck head on by a truck! She managed to speak to him and he seemed to be in relatively good spirits. I have nothing other than this message and I will post it shortly. Since this happened last night some of you may have further information. Healing vibes and well wishes for Pete!

Definitely big healing vibes to Pete. What a terrible way to end what was a solid divide racing effort.

Until the accident, Pete was matching record pace at nearly every split, even with major setbacks like a taco'd wheel, broken fork and of course, this year's nasty rain/mud.

Pete is not listed on the leaderboard. Was he doing ITTD or something else? Why is he not part of the TD general Classification? It sounds like he would have spiced up the leading group if he had started with TD.

Yes, an ITT in the old,
