That's a derby. It was somewhere on the main boards. Still pretty cool.

It's more of a mystery why he fell off than how he was able to get back on.

It was very embarasing, but after that happened, I don't use as much Armor-All on the seat anymore.

What does "DERBY" mean?

dgm · April 26, 2011, 05:28:17 AM

cool... this supports what I've been reading about lately. that bikes ride incredibly well with no rider interfering with them. That a rider should (most of the time) try to be as "invisible" to the bike as possible and let it do it's thing, only providing minimal input when needed. ....loose arms, flexible and relaxed upper body, etc.

Cute, but totally staged. This has been floating around for awhile... The film has been sped up. The bike was going REALLY slow for a guy in full leathers & boots to be able to catch up to it. The other 2 bikes weren't going much faster. Note the reflection of artificial lighting on his helmet.

Derby is the resident all knowing board member, but he's usually found in racing/trackdays and other sections of the board. Whenever someone posts a link to something that exists elsewhere on these forums, Derby will point out and correct your mistake rather quickly. He's a good book of moto knowledge as well.

Agree with all, except that bikes don't turn worth crap without interference, which is the usual precursor to falling off of them.
