New XT cassette, running 1x9 most likely cause was poor shifting on my part while chasing a fast lady up a steep hill. The second snappage was most likely damage caused on the first snap as it was the next link along.
Chain lasted rest of day and had done some miles pre-race, but not with me stomping on pedals.
Normally i would have got off and walked, but you know, racing girls and loosing :)
Will spam the surly thread later, just fitted the Monkey Nuts as i did get some tyre buzz when stuffing the bike into berms.
