Well we arrived in Engadine to a lovely warm afternoon and hoping the weather holds for the race tomorrow. We drove in from the finish end and the streatch of
road between Pontrisina and the finish is almost all brand new asphalt and fast. The slight dip at the end of the downhill is still there after the 3rd over
bridge so watch out there. There is a diversion hump from roadworks but safe if taken with caution. They are having a kids race around the compound but they
may bus them 5km out of town to finish in St Moritz, the head ref Stephan is out looking for a starting point.

Reyon Kay injured today after a chrash | ||
|
This morning Reyon Kay was out on the road for a easy 45 minutes training with his team mates Nayib Tobon and Jose Bastidas to
prepare for the Engadine Marathon. He can not remember how it happend, but obviously he hit a small rock and fell diect on his face. He had to be taken to the
hospital imediately. On his eyebrown and chin they had to fix it with stiches.
The only good news is that he has no further injury on his jaw or head. His helmet probably protected him from worse. After many x-rays and scann's Reyon could go home to the skate house in Geisingen. In the moment the chance is not very high that Reyon can skate tomorrow in the WIC race in St. Moritz. Bad luck for the young skater from the ZEPTO Team who is ranked on third place in the overall of the World Inline Cup. The whole team hopes for a quick recovery! We keep you posted |

Hi Skaters,
Yes Unfortunate for Reyon, as Jorge mentioned lying 3rd overall at present, but with the Kiwi & Rarotongan Mix it speels tough guy, so do not be suprised if he is on the start line, as the way this season is, you won't get a better chance to finish with a high overall & I don't think Reyon, will let the opportunity slip by, unless he is really bad. Hope he gets well Quick, as with Kalon & Nicole out, we do not need another Kiwi Sidelined. Cheers Bill |

After scrutinizing the video by the jury, both were disqualified for a serious misdemeaner, A finish line judge had seen it and it was verified in the video.
Both were shown the video and disqualified.

The Team manager and owner will be officaly informed in writing and it will be up to them to publish it. What they did was serious enough, but they did it
twice. One of them was warned last week if they are caught again she would be disqualified. The federation wants to clean up the racing and no one is exempt!!!
The teams were fowarned at the technical meeting that video evidence would be used if necesscary.
