Haha what a crack up, I love how you can see it in the shadow. What actually happened, tries to slide it and it gripped? As long as you're not hurt though.

That was brilliant why is it that when ever someone uses a helmet cam they always write themselves off????

Yeah, I was fishtailing on the old carpark surface. When I hit the new surface, I slid right around and grabbed a handful of brake before I hit the rope fence. Took abit of skin off my back, elbow and done something to my shoulder.

Not the footage I'd put on the forum. Where you crashed is where a 2500kg 4WD would be coming of the beach on a busy day. You were lucky.
What ive seen it was an unfortunate accident that spoilt your ride, we just need to be careful especially with the new surface and rollovers (speed humps) every 100 meters.
Jamie is right though "Not a good look".
Think what you will just an opinion.

We have ridden stockton for 4 years now and never done one thing wrong. For a bit of a laugh we thought we would share this with you guys.

Its funny how things can get taken.

Things like this happen mate! I know who you work for and why you have stated what you have. But come on "Where you crashed is where a 2500kg 4WD would be coming of the beach on a busy day". It was 630 in morning and a week day not a car or 4wd insight and like I stated before we are regulars to stockton and lavis lane. We know how to handle our bikes ( well i do as for brad.........well?)and it was just one of those things that happens. slip and grab!

have a laugh and move on.

Cheers
james
