What not to do in the canyons



I came across this video randomly about 10 minutes ago. If you want to see a one-way ticket to the morgue, check this out.

There are so many things wrong in this video, but here are just a few:

1) Treating the road like like it's a one way street. Using the lane in the opposite direction as a passing lane on curves and blind turns!
2) Terrible lines (swerving, correcting within corrections)
3) Braking in the turns. At some points you can see the lead rider's tail kick out a bit
4) T-shirts
5) Body positioning? Where?
6) HIGH rate of speed....sorry, ABSURD rate of speed. 120+????

etc.......

*NOTE: Nothing graphic in this video, it's just a perfect example of a total disregard for safety

Enjoy
