Impressive that you stuck the landing but I retract my offer to let you ride the beta. :killingme:
Then you'll never know - probably I am a dedicated KTM destroyer only :killingme:

Also, it gets funnier each time I watch it :killingme:
I was thinking it would be even more funny if we could see my face at the moment of impact :killingme:

OUCH.
There is an unusual gutteral sound made as the bike Is coming down into the tree, right before impact. Like a "ba-loop".
Its hard to identify and harder to type.

The camera shows the bike going right into the tree.
Does the rider bounce off the tree headfirst too?

God bless the majesty of handguards !!!!

WHAT AN AMAZING MOMENT CAPTURED ON VIDEO. WOW

1) :killingme: we don't have decent swearing words in Latvian, so that was adapted Russian "Blyat". The closest in English would be "f_ck". :cheers:
2) I remember feeling some impact on helmet, also I think I hit the tree first with my left hand. I think I would do that instinctively as I have some experience being thrown on the ground and this is kinda similar thing. Can't find any new scuffs on the helmet though.
:cheers:

The property is technically a tree farm. However, we are always looking for special wood for the next campfire.

New meaning of “sticking the landing”.

Will there be an alternate C-loop past that tree? A couple of feet to either side would be great. :chicken:
