Awesome Lowside Pic

Riding in your ability + gear = win
Riding outside of your ability + no gear = fail




Can't remember where i got this, i think from a set from another forum ages ago.

Looks like she has her left flip flop on the ground already.


He needs to turn the bars to the right and get back on the gas. Probably no way to save it, but it would have been worth a try.

That's her foot getting ripped off the peg....

If she survived, how do you look at her after and what do you say........?

205 x 5. I think one of the previous postings had more photos in the sequence. I'm to lazy to hunt for it though.

I am sure she made the choice to get on the bike. I won't let someone on with me dressed like that but....

That happened on a road that i ride on almost every weekend - we call that Squiddy Corner because thats the last corner after a long network of really fun ones.... and that particular one is a fast sweeper and there are ALWAYS people there in the summer time taking pictures.

Mullholland highway, just past the Rock Store... I was out that day and remember seeing the wreck..... too bad.
