    Default Low side one

    I call this "the look of concern" Just drove the bike into a low side and form here on out you are just going for the ride. Nothing much to do but relax and wait for the deceleration to take place. Have the entire sequence, might post after this one.

    Comments welcome and much appreciated

    Great catch Alfred... Looks like he's just lost contact and not really realized what's happened yet.

    Please DO post the rest of the sequence!

    "...and wait for the deceleration to take place."

    This must be the most nonchalant and euphemistic description of "...crash and get your *** kicked" I've ever seen. :)

    Cool image! JR

    Wait for the deceleration? That made me laugh. Poor guy, looks pretty painful.

    I'm sure the onset of "APF" is very visible in the next frames...

    APF = Acute Pucker Factor

    Hi Alfred,
    neat capture!..........but having been on the end of waiting for decelaration to begin twice...........not looking forward to re-living my pain through his! He has on a lot more protective gear on than I did on the street.

    As for skid marks........my second one happened right around the corner from my mom's house.......when the police came by to let me tell her I was going to the hospital for a possible broken leg..........all my mother could ask was......."do you have clean underwear on?"........my reply was............"they used to be!"

    You're right Al - he knows EXACTLY what's coming. You don't get to that level without knowing when you're losing it. (checking his pants will be secondary here).. Great image

    Doesn't it go faster if you keep the wheels ON the pavement!?
