    How many of you said "OH SHIT" Rider who lowsided was ok. Rider who hit the bike was knocked out for a few but was ok.

    Bike on the ground, caught on fire and burnt down.

    Looks like those 2nd 2 guys might have target fixated a little and followed the crash to the outside of the track. The first guy behind held his line and went right inside and missed it all. The other two both just drifted out wide right at it.

    well i was #3 in that inceident. i was behind rider #2. As we crested the hill, i saw the rider down and there were no escape routes to the left (other than off the track and at this point it was only one rider down and probably only goint to be a yellow flag so i wanted to stay on the track). #2 and I started drifiting right, but the #1 bike started coming across the track (from left to right). bike #2 t-boned #1 and all i remember was a facefull of rear tire. maybe some target fixation on my part, im not sure but I glanced off of bike #2 while it was airborn (i believe this impact ignited the fire) and the impact made me drift farther to the right. Then rider #4 clips me on my right side.

    I am a bit surprised that #4 and I didnt go down. i suffered a sprained ankle and a sprained wrist. #4 i think was ok except for his water pump cover. i am not sure what happened to #2.

    That's just ugly!
    Looks like the bike from the guy who crashed initially ghost-rode back across the track
    Glad to hear that it didn't turn out any worse

    Trying to stay to the right over that hill is not easy. The speed, and the off-camber pitch naturally pushes bikes to the left. Viewers need to remember that you (and the guy that hit the bike), had a second or two less to react than the camera bike. I'm still not sure how that bike managed to spin back on the track, especially since the surface slopes to the left.

    How you managed to keep that thing upright, I'll never know. I think that chunk of missing front wheel says it all.

    I believe the guy that went airborne just had a mild concussion, right?

    #2 was given a ride to the ER, but i heard it was "precautionary."

    exactly what happened. Guy on the 1st video I posted, the guy who bumped into him broke the water pump case and oil case on his bike so he pulled off the track.
