The first race I actually had a huge
00:00:03
crash in Monta Italy and I flew through
00:00:06
the air and I landed and my handlebars
00:00:09
snapped. I run to my bike like cuz
00:00:11
that's the first thing that happens. I
00:00:12
could cartwheel like 20 m down the road
00:00:15
and I'm just running back to my bike cuz
00:00:17
I've lost so many championships also by
00:00:19
like two or three points. It makes me
00:00:21
think, okay, every point counts. Even if
00:00:23
you get back to seventh, that point can
00:00:26
make or break a championship. So, I'm
00:00:27
fighting back for points and I get to my
00:00:30
bike and I pick it up and there's no
00:00:31
handlebar. I'm like, "No freaking way."
00:00:34
Because that's 25 points lost then.
00:00:37
>> Oh, so you just want to get back on the
00:00:39
bike and finish. Even though you
00:00:40
finished last, but you still finish the
00:00:42
>> cuz championships on my mind and I'm
00:00:44
like, I need points.
00:00:46
>> That's such an interesting insight cuz I
00:00:47
I literally saw that clip yesterday and
00:00:49
I thought, "Oh, Courtney's all right.
00:00:50
Everything's sweet." Oh, you were just
00:00:51
worried about the bike. Oh, that's so
00:00:53
funny. PS.
