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

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.

When it's my turn to come off, I want to land just like that!
