Looks like the first bike lost rear traction and then regained it an it simply spit him off.
The second wreck just sucked. He came out of the dust cloud and there it was. Once he was committed to full panic brake, he cut down his exit angles. The weight transfer turned the bike into a catapult. I doubt he remembered much. He went nighty night as soon as his head hit the deck. It's just sick. |
