Some nice movies. Thumbs Up

That high-side was very nasty, was the rider ok? Felt sorry for the bike too, it just burst into shards of plastic!

Korn, I'm guessing you were in the expert group? It certainly looks that way.

Quality videos - what camera where you using, and where did you mount the mic? The sounds is just about perfect, no wind at all.

I borrowed the camera setup from Bendy, as far as I know the bullet cam is one of these. I stuck the camera up front inside the air intake snout and the microphone back inside the tail unit with the camcorder and all the other wiring. I've got another lot of footage to search through from a drier session so I'll try to stick some more bits up tomorrow...

Unfortunately the guy who highsided was quite badly hurt, he looked unconscious when he stopped sliding and we were later told he was taken to hospital. If you look at the video just after the highside you can see another crashed bike in the gravel at 2:18, again a victim of the damp patches though this time the person is walking away unhurt.

Two more clips uploaded, the second video has a few problems with sound. I think the vibrations had started getting to it by then...
