She didn’t stop, her adrenaline pumping. He’d catch up. “Come get me!” she yelled, making a slight counter-direction turn in the air to help her blow into the berm on the other side of the road.

The first wall appeared. She took it fast, skidded around to slam into the side of a berm and round off on to another gully crossing.
