Unwise early entry


Puts one over the double yellows - booo


Then you get all untidy and into a line you can't recover from


And karma wrecks revenge upon you


And then your car's all busted

See that one over on ADV? 

I'm sure it's in their gap fails thread too, but I was just looking over Killboys stuff. Didnt see the ADV version yet

The VW Transporter was doing alright until veering onto the wrong side of the road.

But that bloody idiot in the BMW is looking for a head on .

Whacky backwards driving Aussies.

Deals Gap is like the death road now.

Saw that on Killboy's highlights.  I just spent a week in the gap area riding the gap almost every morning.  Lots of stupid driving, even during the week.  Usually the circus is on the weekends.  I have pics of a group of R1s that can't stay in their lane.  We met with a first-timer on an R6 that rode with our group.  He tossed is R6 about 40ft down the mountain because he didn't ride his ride and paid the consequences.  If you go there to prove something besides you can ride your own pace, you WILL get hurt.

Fixed.   This applies to all rides in all places.

+1 to that   

The guy in the Porch was doing OK at first, but his exit point should have been aimed at the back of the BMW instead of the upper bank on the side of the road.  

Ok at first? He's on the wrong side of the road - not ok

Wrong side of the road? Yea he knows that. You never crossed the double yellow before?

Looks to me like he went in *way* too fast, and at least recognized that early enough to use all of the available road.

Or possibly just a bit too fast with a botched line from the previous corner.

Either way, screwed from the get-go.

Well whatever he did, he botched that one up
looks kind of like he was steering into the other lane way too early.

In a car? Like that? Actually no, I have not.
