A little salt for Doug's wound, eh?

My stock Mc91B's connecting rod on Sunday... reminds me of the Tootsie Pop commercial... how many licks does it take to get to the center.  One, two, three, CRUNCH.  Answer: three.

I have no complaints.  Bought it used, never freshened it, ran it for about 4 years.  But... when we loaded up in the morning, I did NOT expect to come home with a fragged motor.

First time for everything.

The poor little crank stopped SO fast that the flywheel nut didn't get the memo.  It kept spinning, unscrewed itself and ended up in the grass somewhere.

Two consecutive DNF's...  maybe time to switch back to a US820.  Can't win with a Yellow Fellow unless you FINISH.
