    I'm sure a lot of riders have been surprised by trees there over the years.

      Hey I know people that had a tree leap out in front of them on a 2 lane road. Heavy rain and wind and the tree fell right across both lanes. Busted radiator, bumper and air dam.

        Speak for yourself.
        All these responses and no one says how they would love to go do that. I am turning 54 years old and would be all over one of those bikes if someone else was footing the bill.
        Would I run as fast lap times as them in the video of course not but I would have a blast trying. Those bikes are so much more stable at high speeds than you think and the braking ability is 10 times better than an old GS. It doesn't even get fun until you get over 150 mph. Nothing gets my adrenalin flowing like lots of MPH. The more you do it the easier it gets.
        That would be quite a workout I might be to old. NAHH

        A lot of great racers have died running that race

              You can ride a tricycle without being a geek?
              I'd like to see that.

                    in the woods i'm a damn limb magnet. If theres a branch waiting to clothesline me I will find it. Usually balls to the wall through a berm or rythm section while looking back lol
