A Pretty Bad Getoff Video

Here's 1.5 laps at Wildwood Lake Raceway in Little Hocking, Ohio. Got a bit sideways in soft stuff, tried to straighten it out by staying on the throttle. Didn't work and was sideways off the jump.

Surprising how little it hurt. Bruised knee and a couple scrapes.

The front wheel was so twisted in the forks I almost crashed again riding away.

Had to loosen up the entire front end to straighten it all out.

And on this promotional note - it appears that the Fast Flexx bars remain unbent.

Here's a very small section of the current GP course at Wildwood - most of the woods on the course are much "woodsier" but I accidentally left the GoPro on when not riding and the battery ran out before I could film the other woods.

I can hear the woods guys now ....

"Why that there is a couple trees on a motocross track".

In other words, Okie's kind of "woods riding". :nod:

LOL.

Seriously - the main woods section is pretty difficult - rocky creek riding, pretty steep hills, tight single track, etc. . .

And that's just for the GP. When he runs a Hare Scrambles up there, its rather more gnarly.

What helmet camera do you have? :)

Looks like a supermoto course, concrete like dirt. Gimme Nacona! Nice video, glad you're OK.
Okie, you still need a "toe" truck after your "trip" at the 500?

Funny you mention that toe, I broke it again 3 weeks ago! Not on a stump this time, kicked a heavy wood box barefoot :bang: No, not karate, just a fast pace walk, lol.

Red Clay - if it's wet the mud is so thick I have to spend 45 minutes getting it off the bike.

If it's dry, you're riding on ice. I have soft ground tires on, so that doesn't help.

Here is some more woods stuff from that place - note that I'm riding quite slow because my buddy is with me - he had hardly ridden a dirt bike since we used to ride together as teenagers in the late 80s. I was letting him ride my KTM 200 (sold to another buddy as soon as he gets me the $$). Anyway, he's still getting his legs under him, so we are moving rather slow.

BTW, youtube sucks - even if you choose HD, it's still not as good as vimeo for playback resolution. But I had to switch to youtube because the Wildwood Lake website wanted to use my videos. They're on the front page of the website.

Here's the woods riding:
