    JEEZ!! Look at that back wheel go!!
    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

    What amazing skills... or sheer bloody mindedness and brute strength...

    I tend to the latter!

    and the 'hope someone got that on camera, otherwise no one would believe me' look. great.

    I could learn from that, I tend to give up by the time my elbows on the ground and hop off for a lie down!

    Apart from the severe slide - I nearly slipped off my bike exiting the sweeper at Manfeild.

    My leg was way out there - Lissa thought I was waving to the crowd....

    Thomas Luthi. Spose he learnt that from Keith Codes Rider Training. He's a pretty serious racer. He wouldn't have seen the shit he slipped on as he would have been looking half a mile up the track.

    Actual, that "Never let go" thang isn't good advice for road racing. Ask Aaron Slight - he started off racing dirt bikes, where holding onto the bike after you went down made it easier and quicker to get going again. But (however), that habit alsmot cost him his hand when testing at Suzuka, where it was severely abraded between the handlebar and track.
    Ouchie!!
