Mark great vid thanks for posting. You couldn't have crashed in a better place. Looked to me like the front was lifting from the power when you tapped the front brake. Hard to believe that would wash out so fast like that!
:mrgreen:

that was my feeling. Thanks for the kind words. also a hell of an argument for a full face helmet. (aqnd knee protection!!!)

Im on the mend. repair parts for rd are on order. all is well. and i got sympathy donuts on sunday. :D still was a great trip! :thumbup:

I'm amazed at how fast that happened! It looks as though you managed to relax a bit during the slide, which probably lessened your injuries. Sorry to see that, but glad you're OK.
