As always...another great read and some good pics from the North Island. Bummer about the Bimmer-pilot sailing off into the greenery, but it looks like he got away sort-of-ok.
I'll have another read while trying to trace things via Gmaps.
Thanks for yet another enjoyable yarn

I tried to do a googlemap (didn't take GPS with me so no tracks to use) but it wouldn't let me join up some of the minor roads - insisted on doubling back and taking other roads.

Another video from Sunday: http://banditrider.blogspot.co.nz/2015/05/nevs-video.html
That new Gmaps is total crap...and the old style is finally gone for good, no more switching back.
Leaves us with a pile of stuffed links, too...as the formatting is different and all.
Some good editing/ cutting !
I just try to imagine the whole thing on a day of blue skies and sunshine

Poor bugger
. Looks like some target fixation after an unexpected bar movement. How is he doing? All the best for a speedy recovery.
Looks like he just f/u...simple as that. Seemed to have gotten close to the edge in the preceding righthander and rolled it on at the exit... perhaps still rattled and off-balance, going hot, wide and way late into the lefty, spooked at the slimy bit, splat. Only a 2 outta 10 for artistic expression though....looked like he came down like a sack of wet shyte.
I certainly know the sequence well
, got plenty of practice

Yeah, all mucked up coming out of the right and doing everything too late for the left. And listening to terrible music...
He has 3 broken ribs but hopes to be back on the bike in 3-4 weeks.

Lovely deep gravelled corners, just enough to upset your line if you,
A: start singing to the tunes in your helmet.
B: Admire the views mid corner
C: Think your in a rally car when in fact your not
D: Ambition outweighs ability... which is my perferred option...
Wishing the guy a speedy recovery!
Cheers Doug.
