I dont know where or when this happened but I thought it was entertaining since apparently no one got hurt! I was embarrassed when I let mine fall over at the stoplight, imagine this guy!

linky

 
So he looks backwards between his legs to see how close the pursuit is, and then grabs too much throttle when he sits back down? Yep... pretty embarassing.... :haha:

 
Hey donaldb.....I don't remember you asking if you could use a picture of my dad :haha: it is a nice one though :D ....oh ya...can we assume the kaw rider was french by that move :dribble: :dribble: :dribble:

 
What really funny is that that was a 24 hour endurance race... I'm sure he also had to explain to his team! :eek: :D
Yeah, the first or second lap of a 24 hour race as I recall......where did he learn that trick anyway? Never saw anyone try to look behind them by standing up and looking back between their legs.

Well then they had time to fix it! When I was a mechanic we had a rider crash our bike on hour 6 of a 24 hour endurance race, we had a spare bike for parts, striped the parts we needed off it and won! It helped that Team Hammer crashed 3 times and ran out of parts and the team leading the series (forget the name) blew their last motor, hey a win is a win. We put it on cruse the last 3 hours... then figured out we could have set a Willow Springs 24 hour record. :haha:

You are right it was the first lap. The stupid SOB was going to lead the first lap of the French Location of the 24 hour endurance series and stunted (didn't cross the line). Yeah he will get another ride. :haha:
