2 part race guys. he is just getting off his bike to start the 4 foot sprint stright into the ground.
...you break your spine in multiple places and all you get for it is the work "sick" repeated 200 times on Pinkbike.
lucky tris is all lad, they werent v sharp cos i was on 300th flash sync so the flash only fired on a few. when i get sorted ill see if ive any of you lad.
crazy speeds from brayton and a really unlucky crash... still beat the majority of people after this HUGE crash !!
Not many people could get up and finish there run after a crash like that, big respect for even taking the line.

Great capture Les. He was steaming down that hill aswell. Heard the crash from further up the hill. What a gutter!
hmm, it was quite emotional, one of his close friends ran down to help, and was as surprised as me to see him getting back up and on the bike!
What was he thinking, riding into that massive rock. He probably still won though knowing Adam (which I don't).
I was a bit further down the hill..waiting for him, totally missed my shot.
Same when he cleaned that lad up just after the road jump.
Awesome pic, deffo POD !

i think brayton just started the new scratchmere quarry when he landed that, hes that much of a hard man.
i spoke to him like a day after and he was pretty damn soar let alone the fact he has a jimmyed knee as it is :L but i told him he was testing the areo dynamics for giro ...
geez, not suprising, looks like the landing is gonna be brutal! Amazing pic though! Hope he has a speedy recovery.

I fell in love with this picture instantly, LOL get it. Fell But seriously, POD for sure, Everything in this shot is dialed. Look at the people faces in the background, you can see the oowowoww sh][t in their expressions.
and to think he got up and finished the race....saw a video of it on braytons facebook, very fast crash!

thats sad, would've been even worse if you didn't get this picture out of it. the guys a serious pinner when he's on the bike.

yes.... i think he fell!! dont think he will regain the control from his bike from a crash like that! sweet pod, props fro the camera guy, hope hes ok from that!
[Reply]
SO NUTS!! I was wondering if anyone had a pic of this. I have it on video and should have it up soon.
actually nvmd I looked too quick, thought this was @ the Bromont WC. Reid did basically the same move during practice.

That's what you call an "out of bike experience" If I knew all I had to do was an endo, CRAP!, I coulda had POD tons of times! (kidding). Nice shot, hope the rider is OK
sick facking pic.. thank god that it looks like soft ground..but still is going to hurt like a bicth!

glad this got pod thats my small son behind tree and my other son and his friend i heard the crash from further up the track didnt sound good well done to catch this one conciderin how fast he passd me mint...
The guy in the background is Leeam who was shooting footage with his phone, check out his profile for the vid footage all be it poor phone footage, but don't slate him for it, he has the coolest hair in UK DH.

The guy in the pic above is Adam Brayton a world cup ripper, you on the other hand are just a pube-less nipper!
Now who sucks?
Now who sucks?
When your balls finally drop then maybe one day you will have a 100th of the skill Adam has but until that day, stick in at school lad and learn to string a sentence together first. The few photos of you riding say it all really!

its pretty annoying when 10 year olds are on the site and post unnessesary comments like this. And im pretty sure if you fell you would want other little ten year olds yelling out FAIL FAIL FAIL FAIL FAIL FAIL FAIL EPIC FAIL
Hmm, i didnt see it as a fail, fair enough he came off, but he got back on, even with some broken bones and still got a podium finish. I just let the young ones get on with it. Cheers.

ok so this is todays pod right but its 1,27 IN THE morning so y hasent the pod changed to todays pod eh pink bike
The guy behind the tree in the hat looks scared shitless. And the black man in the background with the afro appears to be throwing something...or taking a picture....or placing a curse on him. 
I hope he's ok. that looks like a brutal crash.

wow he sucks. I wouldn't have bailed on that and I suck shit. Negative props me if you want, but this guy is terrible.
you dont know the story lad, so in a way your wrong, also he is a world cup rider, so trust me he can ride, his line was changed by people when he had gone, ps he landed, broke his wrist, and damaged his good knee and had internal damage, and still got on the podium with his time. Nuff said.
oooh wow. sorry about that. i was way hyper last night and thought it would be fun to see how many neg. props i got.
