Cheers Joe.
And it was a bad mistake I know, basicly I came into a corner with a signposted speed of 30mph at about 50mph. The corner was a quick right into a left hander which is what made me keep my speed. It then went on for a bit then back into a hard left hander. My mistake is I thought the second left bend was the same as the first. I guess the drive way gave it that effect as on the left of the road it was solid rock. And huge trees on both sides lol.
I hit the straight and gunned it trying to keep up with the person in front which was stupid of me when you consider he has riding experience of 35 years and road racing and track riding for 10.
There was a load of gravel on the road near the bend I remember him flashing his brake lights and pointing to it but by that time I had hit it I was braking over it, which caused the front wheel to lock. So I released the front brake. Then I saw how bad the corner was and panic braked at the speed I was going I would of not made the corner, But I braked a bit to hard. My bike straightened right up causing me to go off-road into the what I guess was an old drive way and I managed to get a lot of speed off before the bike went down if not I would of hit that bin at least 30mph. Yes it was a silly mistake but so what I learnt from that mistake.
After about 20 mins I was back on the bike and riding again although I went alot slower.
Seems these are popular at the moment I drew this for ya the road was the 226a heading north google map for the win.
