It's dumb question time

Looks like a good thing he's got reverse and all wheel drive. He does, doesn't he?
WTF happened? Is he OK?

I was behind him, all I saw was rear lock up for 20metres evidenced by the black skid mark then he disappeared over the edge into the scrub.

No damage or serious injury, sore pride only...

Took a Landrover and a tow rope to retrieve the bike...
 
Ooooooooooooooooooooohhhh Ahhhhh.... not goodglad to read the rider only had a bruised Ego
 
He had the car tyre on for about a week when this happened, he is adamant that the tyre had nothing to do with the "incident". He is accepting all responsibility...

I can tell you that he had been around that corner a hundred times before, on a bike tyre?

I am staying with the Metz at the moment
 

Awww, come on Binnsy. Give it a try. I sat on the fence for a very long time, I don't think there is anything that Metzler, Avon can do to get me back on one of their over priced under performing offerings. After you have worn out the center of a rear Metz and still have a bunch of rubber left on the outside edges, you'll come to the realization that we did Riken Rider
