Haha, i had the best view in the house for that.
You locked your back or something, smacked your front in to his back wheel, knocked him towards the corner more, he kept going and your back wheel went everywhere, left then right then left then you stopped.

Ill let you have a go on my KDX next time if your game (It has taken victims! Koba that is - you might be next) to see how much grip i truly don't have (seriously!)

I tried to dive up the inside, but by that stage the front brake pads were all gone to metal and I couldn't stop in time !!!

Yup, bring on the KDX, I'd love a go !!!

I learnt to ride on a CR80R, how hard can it be !!!!

The power's sweet as, its all midrange punch, lots of it too. Lots of short shifting. Its quite hard to figure out where to put the power on mid corner. I can guarntee if you ride it like a bucket it your going to be sliding along the ground!.
also you notice flat spots in the trial tyre's mid corner on the front wheel now. Shudder shudder shudder.

Its still fun tho! and surpisling not that much slower in the corners versus people with good tyres!

Doesn't for me...
Using it as point to push on inside bar from.

Of course doing that on the pitbike causes it to fall over not straighten up or turn!

I popped up for a look see, and man you guys(and Gals of course) looked like you were having so much fun...
(sorry about the small size of the pics, I had camera issues so most pics are from a sequence and therefore low quality

)

I might have to drag out the KTM and have a play next time
