    Nasty crash - British Superbike - NOT FOR THE SQUEAMISH

    Haven't posted for a while, so firstly Hi all

    I managed to wangle some passes from Rizla for the Cadwell Park round of the British Superbike season last weekend including a couple of Moutain Top grandstand tickets We had an absolutely belting day but blemished by Leon Camier's crash after he landed badly coming down from some air on the Mountain right in front of us. We didn't realise quite how bad it was until we saw the TV coverage play it back in slow motion.

    Gotta feel for the poor guy!
    They shall not grow old as we that are left grow old.
    Age shall not weary them nor the years condemn.
    At the going down of the sun and in the evening,
    we will remember them

    Yuck. I rate that one up there with Conrad Smith's broken leg.

    Not good. That one will come back to haunt him when he gets into his 40s and 50s.

    GWS.
    And I to my motorcycle parked like the soul of the junkyard. Restored, a bicycle fleshed with power, and tore off. Up Highway 106 continually drunk on the wind in my mouth. Wringing the handlebar for speed, wild to be wreckage forever.

    Far out I bet that hurtCadwell Park looks a bit dangerous not for the faint hearted racer, check out the other video clips from Cadwell park, two wheels in the air cranked over.

    Quite right; I broke my lower leg once (can't recall the exact name of the bone, spelling looked like 'labia' but I know it wasn't that) and it freakin hurt. I wasn't on a superbike either.

    Possibly Tibia? Sure glad you didn't break your labia...
