June 26, 201313 yr When I am not riding myself I ususally bring my camera. You never know when a good motive turns up. Luckily my camera was ready and in sport mode this day... -Jan
June 26, 201313 yr "Oh hey, Look there's a chunk of gold on the ground" "Nope my mistake, was just a shiny rock" Little does he know that the pic of him on the ground is the "gold"

June 28, 201313 yr FYI, I will tell you as something I have found from similar experience, when going downhill (ie:reverse angle on forks) it is very easy to have the bars twist out of your control with a slight disruption unless you intentionally maintain rigid arms as protection!!!! Seems once you give, you are gone! Must LOCK arms!

June 28, 201313 yr I think you are looking at the pictures in the wrong light. This was clearly an intentional incident to prove the strength/durability of the back protector he is wearing.

Therefore all the evidence points to a very good rider merely 'acting' for the camera and demonstrating how good his kit is! :hyper:
