What was the oncoming biker doing on that side of the road; did he ‘bale out’ of the previous corner?

He was trying to avoid the muppet falling off the Suzuki.

This is the corner where the hero crashed his ZX10 on Saturday… this pic was taken on Friday… He blamed the oil in the road for losing traction… several hundred other people also rode this section of road & he was the only pillock to crash…

Yup, from people who have a considerable reading & comprehension disability, but that place is overly populated by 18yo wannabe sonny bargers. 😉

It seems obvious that, that piece of road is nothing more than a race track, and they were easily breaking the National speed limit.

Good thing I didn’t post the other video from Tuesday on the same section of road. I might have been going a tad faster. That also had 2 *events*. The first was passing a cop on the same corner while making good progress & the second was another bloody car driver doing a U turn at a hairpin bend. Luckily I could see across from a couple corners further down the hill & spotted the car on the wrong side of the road.

speed kills,

Actually it doesn’t, but *inappropriate speed* does.. 😉

Poor show.

He still may have had a serious injury.

The 4 guys behind may have also been as selfish and sailed by without stopping.

You should have stopped, even if it was to help him get his bike off to the side of the road and prevent another accident.

Where were the 50 onlookers BTW?

As a (recent retired) biker in the UK, we look after our own.

Did I say poor show?

He didn’t have a serious injury, you can see him getting up as I pass him.

He had the bike up in seconds, one of the guys behind me only saw the bike off to the side & a broken frame slider laying in the road… & he was only seconds behind me. He was barely moving forward when he ran out of talent.

The onlookers were just up the road on a hill.

& if I did stop, I wouldn’t have helped him pick the bike up. Owing to nerve damage (broken neck) & torn ligaments etc from my wreck 7 years ago I’m not supposed to lift ANYTHING according to the quacks. I could have stood there & offered constructive criticism tho 🙂

I know what they meant, just never seen it called that before…
