Dang.....beat the s**t out of the other rider perhaps. At the very least go over and kick his wrecked bike.

Scary. That's the problem with racing on public roads: just because you might be in control is no guarantee you won't end up in a world of hurt.

It looks like the squid rider is wearing jeans and a red hoodie. It also looks like he was losing it before he hit the apex. Typical too hot into a corner scenario, I presume.

That's why I don't ride canyons on weekends. The same thing happened on Ortega a few months ago on a Sunday. A guy on a GSXR took out a Ducati.

Pitiful.

Low side. Could have hit some sand/gravel. It would be more typical to see the bike stand up on a blown turn. Looks like this guy was leaned over and committed to making the turn.
