Danika Schroeter, Canadian rider wrenching on her bike in our pit. She got a bit obsessive over how straight her fork/wheel/handlebar was. Ok, it was a bit tweaked, and to her credit, she did most of the work herself (super-cool for a rider.) While she was working on her bike some reporters interviewed her. They asked stupid questions like, "what is your strategy," and "what is your goal for this race." She told them she hoped for a top-5 finish, which she latered confided was just a bunch of BS she was feeding them. I ran into Danika before the finals, and she was excited that she had qualified in 11th position, but was worried about her fore-arm strength because the course was so challenging and long. I happened to catch her run (saw the finish) and she took over 1st position as the 13th of 24 riders. She beat the previous best time by 17 seconds. She would end up in 6th place in the end, missing 5th by .03 of a sec. Her bragging held up!
