    Re: crashes at loudon

    Well lets see...

    I've lowsided in 2 in the wet, that was my worst crash injury wise.

    I've lowsided up 4, played bump and run in 7 with DDK, supermanned off the back of a sidecar in 10, lowsided my 70 exiting 11...

    No option for "everywhere" ?

    Pretty sure I've crashed in... 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 10, 11 and 12.

    Surprised the turns you went with, 2 and 12 are common, but I think as many or more are likely to happen in 3, 6 and 9.

    It's all water under the bridge, and we do enter the next round-robin. Am I wrong?

    Re: crashes at loudon

    From most recent to oldest,

    Tucked the front in 1.
    Tucked the front twice in 8.
    Clipped the curb & low sided in 3 by the beach.
    Tried jumping onto the back of Clayton's bike entering 11.
    High sided coming outta 12 in the damp.
    Got broadsided by a lowsiding Ducati in 10.

    Think that's it.

    Re: crashes at loudon

    turn 6, in both the wet and dry. Poor body position and whisky throttle in both instances...just love that sling-shot feeling out of there, you pin it right and you're golden. You goose it too much and...well, you crash

    Yeah, 5 is a toughie, and 11a would just be weird. 1A though, that one can bite ya.

    6 caught the curb. 6 + 10 too much speed ran out of skill
