GoPro Helmet Cam - 2 Stroke Test Ride Gone Bad 17

VitalMX member and all around good dude Slipdog shot a cool helmet cam GoPro vid that took me for a ride around a classic NorCal track E-Street in Marysville, CA. Unfortunately it did not end well...

Thanks for the ride and the awesome memories Slippy...us broken MX'ers really appreciate it!

Damn, did the bike just slip into neutral for a second on the lip and then catch gear again? That sucks! You were hauling,

Still not really sure what happened. It downshifted right before the takeoff, but I was going too fast to shut off for the double so I started to lean back a bit and then it jumped back up a gear and launched right out from underneath me.It all happened in a split second. Going to be splitting the cases to check the shift forks and tranny gears.

Looked like he was in the wrong class. Passing everyone like they were standing still.

i hate that camera stabilization thing on these gopro videos. makes it looks like a monkey is messing with the zoom slider. good riding either way. i'd love to give that track a try

Thankfully I'm good. I was just taking Ridge's stock Cr250 for a test ride before building the motor for the Extremity Games.

cool video. take this one down though and re post it in normal speed . speeding up a video to make you look faster is pretty lame...

It's an '02 Cr250r and Ridgway keeps it pretty clean!
