Been there, done that. Sky, earth, sky, earth, sky gravel trap...

Gravity is a harsh mistress and the ground fooking hurts! Glad to see you up quickly though!

Glad that you are on the mend.

I dread to think how badly Jorge et al hurts after the height of theirs...

You were ripping coming off that corner, there was no way that the cheeky sod was going to take you on the inside... people really shouldn't overtake on a corner, (well, that's what the TDO official line is...)

Good camera work too...
No bike (yet).

Ouch! 8O
At least you kept it pinned when he came up your inside. Maybe next time don't try to be so brave.
Glad you're okay Toby.
