Looks like another target fixation wreck in the same place.  Posted this in the bicycle thread as well.  First cyclist takes a pretty hard pavement hit to the head.

Guess I did a double derby.

We have a new winner. I feel a bit bad, since it's a nice new 848 Corse... but this guy was going to crash sooner, not later. Crash at 0:50

"Are you from Australia or Hong Kong?" was just as good!

You can see from 0:32 that guy over his head. Wobble, sloppy adjust, wobble, turn in too early, adjust body badly mid turn, clip dbly yellow at full lean, crash.

Brand new 848 well, at least he got up and rode. Hopefully he made it home.

Yeah, looks like if was the 'flector that got him. Looking at the comments, some folks thought it was the lines. But it seemed to me that he went down before the wheel hit the paint - but I didn't watch the slow mo to spot the reflector.

Well, this is a case of a couple rider errors.

First - is his tire. Watch the full clip and you'll see why he's a dumb ass.
2nd - he was in over his head and might well have crashed regardless of tire condition.

Nothing to do with him being crossed up, on a shagged tire.

Also looked like he wasn't counter-steering. At all.

One must - that's just physics. But the greatest deflection of the bars is at your tip in. After the tip in you really don't need much input on the bars if you've got it right and they will look pretty neutral

What I meant was that the front gave out because of the tires as stated on the video.
