Sorry, no picture. It was pretty funny to watch though. He must have been a good 20 yards from the gate when he did it. The best part was he rode it all the way to the ground, he wasn't giving up for anything. And, he got up and finished the race, gotta respect that!

Props to the rider on the Yamaha as well, he did some quick maneuvering to keep from being a part of that mess.

Thanks for sharing Char.

Tell him the big guys have the same problem
