Definitely could have landed worse. It's bloody bumpy round that corner probably a good reason he had second thoughts.

The noise of him hitting that padding is a tad funny. Poor guy.

jdubya's video - the exact bit of banking where the yellow bike stacked it is where I had to stop and sit for 10 mins while the cramp in my inner leg passed :) irksy came blazing back to see if I had come off :rolleyes:

+1 that is style, all it needed was for him to take a bow and he'd have been my hero.

WTf was he doing?
He overtook a bit close imo and then didnt seem to be going that fast, the camera rider did well to miss the debris.

Uh, yeah...too busy looking for an overtake and not busy looking where he was going maybe.
