    Yeah that would explain the burnout a bit too. Maybe not that much. But I’ve had a finicky clutch cable that wouldn’t quite engage and the bike was always trying to go

    This will be a core memory for that dude for the rest of his life

    Cannot imagine the levels of embarrassment he was feeling Every second of this must’ve felt like minutes

    Also that those guys helping him or at least trying to help where way to panicky Might have hindered more rather than helped

    A friend of mine wanted to pop a wheely at the most busy street intersection of our very big city. Playing with the gas before and everything. He makes this wheely 499/500 times.

    He f ed it up and just backflipped. There were probably close to 500 people seeing it.

    Sometimes I randomly get second hand embarrassment years later and I judged witnessed it. And it wasn’t me who had to do the walk of shame collecting his bike parts from the street. I don’t know how it is for him 💀

    At that point, just park the bike and watch the race. You're just making everyone sad.

    Guy in the black shirt is not helping at all. He immediately grabs the bike and then trips the rider as he tries to get back on. Then he starts the bike and opens the throttle before the rider is on the bike, launching it away again.

    And then, like a streak of lightning, he took off and hunted the other riders down one by one. When he finally worked his way into second, he saw the leader.

    Passing him on the last tabletop before the finish line, he just kept going higher. Up, up into the heavens, he never landed the jump that day. He may have not won the race, but he won our hearts, my friend.

    Some say, when its really quiet at the track, you can hear an over revving junker bike stuck at the starting gate.

    I always wondered why those gates don’t fall forward. It seems like a bad design.

    .... You know that's deliberate right? Designed to prevent false starts

    How would them staying locked until the buzzer then falling forward instead, make a false start happen?

    It's specifically meant to trap you if you jump the start. It did exactly what it was designed to do.

    Though this guy had a failing clutch cable but still.

    Everything he did seems intentional. I think he was being too cocky/arrogant, but that's just me.

    Anyway, that was embarrassing.

    People are supposed to start on their own after the start signal, not push their front wheel to the gate and grind the back wheel till the gate opens
