1st Fall: Jasmine - July 28th, 1990

This race was so predictable, so much so that a photographer, Mike Goddard was prepared in the right spot to snap these pictures, which won an award for photography in Barbados.

Jasmine had done this same thing a few times before and with even stronger riders than myself, which left me with little chance!
