He just missed that first bloke that rode past....
He looked to me like he was totally out riding himself, right up to the impact.
I doubt either of those blokes will be the same after that prang.
This sort of thing really gives me the shits, you see it all the time on all the good roads, test pilots who are on machinery which way outclasses their ability, running wide, belting walls and other road users.
The few times I ride the OPH per year, I can't help but notice how many thick black brake-lock-up lines their are on the road, sometimes crossing to the other side of the road, over the oncoming lane.
Some of em even end in bent guardrails/rock walls etc...
Not saying I'm perfect and have never made a mistake, but some riders really should learn the throttle turns both ways.
