I’d like to think this crash might make you and your mates re-evaluate how you ride on the road and slow down a bit, but given that this isn’t the first crash at speed in your group and things haven’t changed, i fear it’s going to take 1 of you being seriously injured (or worse) before you start to think differently. And sadly i think it’s not a matter of if that happens, but when. You even said at the end of the video that lessons have to be learned. I guess time will tell if you actually learned the lesson being taught
we all like to ride fast, i can't blame you for that, but it seems like you're not at all familiar with these roads. terrible idea to not run them at a moderate pace until you know every corner like the back of your hand, then hit it with speed. hope you alter your approach in the future. hate seeing young guys go down, just want the best for ya'll. lord knows i've done some stupid shit in my day, i'm not trying to preach, just speaking from hard earned experience.
I think riding in a group and riding a torquey bike can often provide a level of excitement that overcomes reason and restraint. You have to do the due diligence of repeatedly riding that road alone and slowly until you can clearly visualise it in your mind from start to finish, just like your local neighbourhood streets you're very familiar with, in order to make your body learn through sheer experience all the quirks and dangers throughout the road and the line to take which safely avoids all of them. This took me around 5000km for our local hill road which spans 5km. When you reach this point, you cruising at 70% of your effort will bring more happiness, is much safer and in fact will be much faster than a rookie at 100% wringing the throttle only to stress his mind with adrenaline and put his life on the line. Because if you take a second to consider how much a punch to the skull hurts, it will become clear that a true head-on impact at sportbike speeds is fatal no matter the helmet. Twisties are the highest source of motorcycling enjoyment in my opinion, but also the most risky for those who don't control themselves. Take care, and once you're familiar with this road, please make sure to mention these to new riders in your group who might try to keep up with your pace. I'm nobody special, just a hillrider who has learnt a few things the hard way and wishes the best for his fellow bikers. Keep the high quality vids coming.
I live on Mt Tamborine, it can be a very deceptive and dangerous place to ride and drive, I crashed my sports car twice on these roads, I have had one friend die here, driving straight off the cliff on Henri Robert Drive. These roads turn abruptly and in the wet or misty days are very dangerous. There is also ice on the roads in regions where sun light rarely illuminates and oil from very high traffic on these roads making them treacherous in misty winter mornings. Don't feel bad, you were not well and not at peak awareness. Slow down and please take care.
Im sorry bro but when you’re on a bike you have to let go of your ego and control your andrenaline. When you misjudge one turn and almost fall you should be worried with yourself and slow down. You cant just be lucky more than once. Once you see you’re not concentrated you just have to say “fuck it today is not my day”. I could already see where this was heading, you looked like you were running on a unknown road and kept pushing for more even though you knew something was not ok.
No need for a sorry!! I’ve sat, watched & replayed this footage over a thousand times at this point, analysing my mistakes. Thanks for genuine input & watching the video 🫶

Tambourine mountain is my race track, I love it. Be grateful you didn't have to pull the parachute cord lol.
Grateful for sure, hope you're well bro
