June 15th that is... I did this after midnight....

Both riders are fine as far as I can tell.


I think I saw 42 rider sitting at the back of ambulance shortly after the crash.
151 rider did not require ambulance. I hope full recovery is quick!

I hope races are problem free for everyone on Sunday!

These people crashing pfewwww ;) lol

According to some opinions at the track and **** talking on Saturday night, if you crash you are crazy and not in control of your riding - I guess Marc Marques is a ****** rider, he crashed 3 or 4 times in one weekend.

Unless you are a racer and put your skin out there, you need to STFU (not you TJ), if you are pushing it to get a position or to test a later brake point, or pushing to lose a second or whatever you are bound to run wide and crash, its part of the deal.

Aubry crashed this weekend, Rupper (sorry if misspelled) crashed last weekend, many other good riders also crashed, it happens.

Everyone was ok and Ken was fast to react as always, thanks!

It doesn't happen a lot, there are over 100 people racing over a period of 3 days, a couple of crashes for each round is insignificant when you take into account how many battles, passes and the amount of things that can go wrong. Also remember the weather has been cold and for the first round people are still a bit stiff from a long winter.

There are 22 races happening on a weekend including the qualifiers, then add practice time etc

Anyways, I was just venting, I'm out of this thread.

I do not think it happens a lot, I took 22GB of pics and this is all I got regarding crashes.
On the bright side second crash happened in pack and everyone was skilled and cool
enough to avoid rider or the bike even if it meant getting off the track.

Organizers were all over it in split second.

In a first crash riders were signalling riders behind immediately and there was no issue.

If you want to watch crashes try youtube...

Mine was just a slight get off. Damn corner 2.

I just had to leave the nice black tire marks for eveyone to focus on and follow into the grass.

I think I was the first low side of the day in Turn 2. Got off lucky. Bent clipon and some tears in the leathers.

I am fine. Hopefully you are as well.
