Just as the titles states. A tail mounted camera catches a rider loosing it after running onto some gravel on the side of the road.

Gotta keep your distance not only from the double-yellow but also the hard shoulder.

 

Yep. It happens that quick. Poor dude probably didn't even realize what was going on until he hit the embankment.

 

Hurts just to watch.

 

thats a messed up video. so.. just the loose gravel on the side of the road can cause that? it looked like the person ran over a oil slick or something.

 

Yep, that's all it takes. If it's not gravel it's something like sand or dirt. It's just enough to break traction with the contact patch.

 

well he obviously doesnt know how to ride very well because he *** is securely planted straight up and down on that seat... Should have been off the side.

 

Yea its sooo obvious

 

man he wasnt over far at all i cant believe it just went out w/absolutely no warning like that

 

Yea it was but apparently you dont pay much attention.

 

His posture was fine for the street...

If anything, he shouldn't have drifted that close to the shoulder... turns out thats where sand, gravel and the rest of the Gremlins sleep.

Still sucks, looks like he was enjoying a nice Sunday ride.
