Yeh, that's a bit of an iffy corner for sure, I've personally see a couple run off that corner, and more than once gone into it too hot.

One thing I did notice last night was that the people that came around that corner and saw the crash were then slamming on the brakes and stopping right after the corner. On a ride of this size, it's really not a good idea to be stopping in an area that will be a danger to those following you, if others have stopped to help then carry on, or if you wish to stop, try not to just haul on the breaks, instead indicate and then pull over where there's space.

Ride is on for tonight (at this stage............unless the heavens open up)

Shame the weather isnt as nice as it was this morning...... but cloud is better than rain, so I'll see you roosters @ Westgate. I will only cancel the ride if it's heavy rain. I promise no roadworks tonight either....
