Nicky Hayden had a similar save this past weekend, didn't he? Not QUITE as dramatic or off the bike as long, but very similar.

the flag men didnt let him know he was about to be lapped so move out of the racing line...

Besides, Foggy (#1) isnt the most svelt of riders anyway. Fast? yes. Smooth and calculated? no.

watching foggy ride gives me hope. that guys looks stiff and hamfisted riding... like me.

you know what i like about motorcycle racing... you can flip the double bird to the world like Colin did and nobody will get their feelings hurt. Its all understandable in motorcycle racing.


Now in auto racing or any pro sports it will be the end of the world and youre out of control, your kids are on crack, and you club baby seals on the side.
