That dude was very fortunate to have been thrown clear of that wire fence. Think cheese slicer. Whew!

And see Rob, your crashes weren't all that bad now, were they?

Wire fences ! I knew a bloke who went to town to buy some milk and a paper, while he was out the dreaded bitumen patching gang sprinkled fine gravel over his favourite corner .He hit the wire pretty hard and it kind of lifted the muscle and tendon off the back of his right leg.

Stop vomiting now. He walks but strangely .

These things are everywhere now and have accounted for the dismembering and death of a few riders here in Oz.
