Got away with just a couple of grazes and dented pride. Was really angry with myself for being so guff and losing concentration 🙁 Must have been thinking about what I was having for tea!!
wtf were you doing??
karma, you should've spent more time honing your skillz and less searching the interwebnets for gold accessories
Perils of lockout forks 😉

PMSL! 😆
nice tuck and roll, glad you wore the pads eh?
🙂 @ slowrider
guy behind you crashed too... was that because of you, or was actually tricky?
Shit happens 🙂
What doesn't kill you makes you stronger and all that
Count yourself lucky, 2 years ago a bloke crashed less than 1/2 mile from there on this event, hit a wall and was killed.
Seems you were going round fine until you straightened up and went straight into the wall? lol?

+1
haha yeah it was the straightening up caused by me ramming the brakes on when I realised I should have been leaning and turning more, it was a lot tighter than I had planned for.
Yeah Im counting myself lucky.....must concentrate more!!!!
I think the Gold bling may have glinted some sunlight back up into my eyes 🙂
Guy behind, thought "this guy knows the way I'll tuck in behind him"!!!
WTF?
Looks like the guy behind you crashed also - might have been an oil spill on the road?
oil spill on the road?
Yeah I like your thinking 🙂
At least you cleaned the camera lens to get a better image of the crash eh?!
Always thinking 🙂 I should think more when turning 🙁

For some reason i read that in Bear Gryll's voice!
Too much fiddling - not enough concentration 😉
I've captured [s]my best crashes[/s] a few spills on a GoPro, funnily enough as soon as I sold it I stopped crashing 😆
Tw at! - you said it lol!
Brilliant, looked like you were making it before you pulled the brakes.
I hope it didn't hurt too much
Love the fact the guy behind you followed you in 🙂
Tw at! - you said it lol!
That pretty much summed up how I felt.....
I hope it didn't hurt too much
it started to sting as I set off again, backed up by a shout of 'OWWWWWW'
I think (though I could be wrong about this) that the idea is to go [i]round[/i] the corners?
Wow how did you get away from that without an injury??

I must admit I also become a bit preoccupied with my GoPro when its on me. Constantly wiping it or even worse looking down to see if there's crap on the lense whilst riding at speed.
They're evil things I reckon and going to be the death of me.
Pretty nice 🙂
Looks like a classic case of looking where you think you'll end up, and not looking where you want to go.
great vid. funny, but glad youre ok.
We hope its chips, its chips! 🙂
*s****s*
(lets be honest, we have all done muppet moments on bikes)
Ouch.Thats exactly the way i would have taken that corner before i passed my motorbike test along with doing the bike safe course.Learnt so much over the past few years that ive taken over to cycling.Stuff that i would have never known about.
Respect for sharing!
Piled it instead of pinned it. Awesome video though (no, not the crash part) it looks major fun.
Enjoy the evil that is GoPro 👿
