  4. Seen that before. Don't really get why he low sided as he didn't seem to be leaning that far. Think I would have lumped the twat that was giving advice about lane changing, but yeah, the rider was a dick...

  7. Looks a bit dusty, might be a bit on the road maybe making it slippery.

  10. Painted line will get you every time. Do they use a different paint on race tracks because I see guys leaning way over crossing painted lines and not loosing it? I'm very scared of them though.

  11. Usually got sand in on a race track but I still wouldn't trust it in the wet

  13. not rolling on the throttle to keep the weight on the back wheel and possibly even holding the bars too tight, you can get away with the back tyre sliding but you have to keep the weight on the back and let the bike correct itself with a loose grip on the bars - my thoughts.

  14. Well it wasn't the painted line, the back wheel had gone before he got to the line.

    As others have said, why are people filming this bend? It's obviously caught a few people out.

    I guess it's the camber of the road, dust blown on the asphalt and an inexperienced rider.

  18. It's the snake man, the snakes tellen you man, don't cut the lane man!

    Why would you ride round a bend on the wrong side of the road...?

    And the way he jabs the front brake mid turn (0:36ish)....well.... I'd like to go and watch :)
