Pocock was actually one of the few riders I recognized from previous years. The commentator was talking about his accident during the MX2 races, but I didn't know exactly what had happened to him. Bloody impressive to not only be back on a bike so soon, but be competitive as well.
Off topic: My last outing on a dirt bike (actually a pit bike) ended with a trip to A&E and 10 stitches in my leg: a bicycle is the only two wheel transportation I'll get on now!
