S the W!
Good one! Thanks for that. I think that if you look at the shadow cast by the machine you CAN see he was putting some daylight under the front wheel albeit not a lot.

No worries, (future refrence, use the "PRT SC" button on your keyboard, press it when you want the freezeframe, then goto your favourite image program and press CTRL and V at the same time.

Personally i think he was just accerating quickly, if hes fat the front will lighten more so!

Canterbury? really..where abouts? (im actually in ash)

Squiffy - surely you can see that the bike is on the back wheel in that pic - not a very big one, but look at the shadow.

yeah good point actually!

Ive looked at the light source and other shadows and you 100% right! The only way to produce that sort of shadow would be for him to be on the back wheel inmo.

Classic case of SITDYCSTBC.

Still stumped? Stop In The Distance You Can See To Be Clear.

If you can't, then anything you hit is your fault 99.9% of the time.

Also worth a bit of EORUTDSS.
