My squid video... um I mean 250 leads group of 600s in the twisties
As promised, here is my video. That documents a bit of my faster... umm I mean squid-ish ride. I don't normally ride like this and I know there is no excuse but I finally broke loose and had a little more fun on the street than the law allows. Enjoy and feel free to bash away, I gotz thick skin. Hell I may even learn something aside of SLOW DOWN.
The video had to be flipped cause he had the lens 90 out on the contour. That is why it's skinny.

So there is no confusion, I am the lead rider until the 10 min mark.

ahhh...thanks for that clarification, was scratching my head here
 Compared to the gear-less, attention craving, no skill riders, I know of as 'squids'...you're freaking Valentino Rossi bruh, don't be hard on yourself. |

Is there any particular reason why the rider following you keeps crossing the center line?

See, that's what I thought, because sometimes he would be right on you; then other times he dropped back, especially as your speeds picked up.
I just noticed for a few corners he was taking them by going into the other lane. At least that is how the video portrayed it, but the camera angle probably make it look worse than it was.

Yea, he did straighten a few corners by using both lanes.
