I am glad he is ok too, but as if his first reaction when he got up was to walk away and drop his helmet on the gravel.

Looks like he just barely missed the sign post, lucky, though the bike looks to have hit and broke 1 side. He turned in too early and was on a crappy line as well.

Default doh!

At least he only had to worry about taking one glove off.

Been seeing a lot of crashes lately. Weather is getting good, MotoGP just recently started back up, people think they can ride like they do on a track, so on and so on. People need to start yielding on the side of caution more often.

But on the other hand... YOLO!!!!

How fast were you going/ what did he do wrong? That didn't even seem like that tight of a curve! Damn goes to show you I guess...

Good thing he's okay
