KTM Crash into a Tree Trail Riding Taupo

A slippery downhill track leads to a crash and then nearly getting run over. Trail Riding at Taupo, central North Island, New Zealand, cold and wet. Riding thru forest tracks, at the end my helmet camera captures a fairly low speed crash.

Was this a race? Or just a fun trail ride? I have done that before trying to make a pass. Pine trees are so deceving..

@KTMRider766 Hi, just a fun ride, a kind of polite race in some ways...

[thegame569]

nobody stopped to help? the guy who almost hit you took off !?!?

but i totally agree that everyone has to fall at least once!

[PumptNZ]

it was steeper and muddier than it looks, they would have had trouble stopping there

[keithf]

Very good-personally I cut out most of the bits of me falling off

[PumptNZ]

haha, might start doing that too. i reckon if you don't fall of at least once each ride you probably weren't going hard enough!

Sweet trail...when you buy your next set of tires go with a Michelin s12 front tire and either a Maxxis desert rear or Kenda Millville rear tire.
