Remember these gopro cameras have a fish eye lens make things look further away than they really are, so Im not bashing him for his panic move, but I gotta say he is stupid as fuck to be ridding at those speeds anywhere but a track thats just plain asking to get what he got... Now a pro or a really skilled rider i think would have made that turn for sure
I'd say a rider with even decent skill would have made that turn .. What i just observed was an absolute squid in action. I can count multiple seconds where he should have reacted and he just sort of floundered around.. then ends up in the ditch on the right w/ all that road avail? Come on son...
And F' all this track noise . People ride hard as hell in the hillside on 84/skyline/etc in Norcal all day. My typical weekend ride was like this (minus the f*** up) every weekend. Took me about 2 months to learn the roads like the back of my hand though. There was as clear understanding into each corner how fast i could take it.. I explored different ranges but definitely within comfort and not going all full retard if an approach/speed was too much.. It seems like it was this fools first time out there.. str8 hot dogging it. 85 going into a 20 mph turn .. bike isn't even leaned over...
On backside highway 84 you can easily take the wider turns at a buck 15 ..
My track was the street. 3 hours of unique riding beats the hell out of loops. Saved me lots of $$ too.
As you don't have the safety of a track you ride like it and go home in one piece.
Squids die on tracks too.

Is it just me, or did he straight up it into the oncoming lane and THEN tried to make his turn? Dude, seriously learn how to apex a turn. If he'd have been wide right and cut the apex on the left hand shoulder, he may have had enough room coming out of the turn to miss the superman flip he pulled off.
