 Glad you all likes the snap!
I showed this pic to the Pink Taco crew whilst staying in their room at the Venetian (that was my white ass)!! I told Tyler it was my favourite racing shot of all time..

Yeah the guy got up, dusted himself down and carried on, we British are tough as nails. Unlike a British Premiership Footballer who would still be rolling around on the deck awaiting the magical cold and wet sponge.

Ian Linton takes loads of great photos at the National Races as well as the SDA series, he's definately the best..

Cheers.

Si Paton..

 haha, hes not even on his bike anymore. i think the boys might eat it pretty hard when that bike hits the ground, awesome shot. props to the photographer & the rider.

 Yea this pod is alot better then the one yesterday. Props to the camera man for getting this shot before he spilled. It lookslike he was able to control it when his back end came out to far. Still though thats a sick picture and it defently deserves THE place of P>OD. Keep them coming great action shots are alot better then a pedal coming off.

 i took a better look at the photo and u can see how scared he ws just by his eyes. Great job by hanging on to ur bars right through it and Congrats on getting back up.

Anyway, this picture is cool, but he is going to crash for sure !
