Lucky to avoid serious injury or worse.

BTW, everyone's insurance premium just rose slightly

Bit of a c0ck but glad he's ok. Can't imagine he'll be taking blind corners too hot any time soon.

Wait...

Was that not a Selkent rideout?

Such a lovely line he took into the corner even better line to take out of it. He's a lucky boy. Can't ride for toffee but hey there are plenty of people like that out there.

I still wonder why people want to post up videos of their total ineptitude on the Internet.

I dunno I'm sure I've made c*ckups before and if someone else could learn from them...?
And I've seen thee ride

This guy could have used your pep talk Sid. As soon as he sees the car he closes the throttle and is on a one way trip. Also, had he been on a better line going in he may have been able to see further around that bend and reducing his pucker factor, which would likely avoided the first issue.

Lucky to walk away, but can't ride without someone to follow

I feel as though I can ride better when following someone who knows the road.

If I'm unfamiliar with any piece of road I'm always much more careful.
