There's also a "U" rating so please respect this. Newbies can also say "hello" here too.

haha. I was expecting to see some super riding in the water that would wow me. What a fail, and what a fool. Looks quite kitted up. Imagine trying to sort yourself out in water with boots, leathers and a lid.

More likely he was washed onto a bit of higher ground, good luck rather than good management. He was very lucky not to become entangled in submerged branches etc around those trees.

Lucky boy.
