Foc, that took me by surprise!
Most of the way through, I'm thinking yeah, but what about the 50mph limit and average speed cameras. Then seeing all the crap on the road, oh, he's gonna slip on some of that. But that! Christ, he was soooo lucky not to hit that car head on too! And the first thing he does when he gets up is grab the camera!

So, so lucky to be alive.

He got a bit carried away didn't he ? And they were having so much fun.

Buzz · « **Reply #4 on:** 24 March 2014, 07:47:05 pm »

1 second later to give it some beans and he'd have ended up in the back seat. Foolish boy!

Those go -pros are really strong.

Did you all notice that his bike was still at the top
Those wire fences are really strong

I went over there yesterday, it was slippery, with a heavy hail storm at the top. averaging 50 would have been great...

Well I was thinking most of the way through if I were the bike in front of him I would have pulled to the side and let him by so I could see all hazards. As for recovering the camera and then placing the film on you tube? I can only guess hes giving up motorcycling and taking up scenic train journeys. With all the evidence is in the footage his license is going to have a lot off points on it.

what a knob

Cant see why he ran straight at the car unless he got "target fixation"....whatever, he shouldn't be riding a bike

midden · « **Reply #11 on:** 25 March 2014, 03:26:14 am »

1min 21s into the footage certainly highlights the need for these film buffs to blank out registration plates

The man is a frigging idiot! Solid white lines are there for a reason, and he found out why.

I initially thought he had target fixation the second he saw the car but he seems to start drifting a nats before the car - 1 luckey monkey!!

Geez that was scary, he's constantly on and off the power, no consistency he is all over the shop, obviously he thinks he can ride faster than the guy on R1 ! Overtakes on doubles and than hugs the inside ! WTF bad rd positioning thus making the left-hander look as tho its going to tighten up, probably riding beyond he's abilities just to keep up.

shocking could have been head on and seriously injured or fatal the family in the car or himself.

I hold my hands up, several yrs ago i binned a duc in a similar way, no other vehicles involved tho and after looked at my riding ability took some extra training on we're its re-paid tenfold.

So relieved to see that I'm not the only person that thought he was riding like a nobber.

Dead Eye · « **Reply #18 on:** 25 March 2014, 02:07:25 pm »

Definitely out-riding himself there and the last overtake just had nothing good about other than he didn't hit the bike in-front of him... too much power too soon in to that bend and then his road position wasn't up to scratch either. Damn lucky to avoid the car and for the bike to get stuck in the fence - would have been absolutely destroyed otherwise

bigbluebear · « **Reply #19 on:** 25 March 2014, 02:16:03 pm »

He's lucky he went over the fence other wise the wire would have represented a cheese cutter and he would have sliced up into evenly sliced squares.

chris.biker · « **Reply #20 on:** 25 March 2014, 06:02:37 pm »

I have just watched the other 5 videos hes posted, looks like he owned the bike 4 or 5 months. In all his rides he and his mate ride up the centre of the lane they are in and speed appears to be everything.

Twat!!

Hamos · « **Reply #22 on:** 25 March 2014, 07:52:51 pm »

Better road positioning going into the bend he would have seen it opening up rather than being tight and panicking. But hey, I'm just watching a video, easy to say from here. Lucky to walk away, from a fairly innocuous overtake.
