Wow...that's quite a save.

And you're right, he does look good doing it.

Although I'm sure I didn't look nearly as cool doing it, I actually did something similar on the track.  Big, long sweeping, double-apex right hander (the carousel at BeaveRun)...  already draggin my knee...  felt the rear let go a little... felt the peg, my boot and the exhaust start dragging...  I used my knee and just pushed it back up.   :grin:  I wore almost all the way through my toe slider in that one turn.  Wish I had thought to use my elbow like that too!

Colin's always been my favorite rider...about killed me when he had that lead and lost it on the last stretch (either last year or the year before...either way it sucked!).

  :clap: Awsome! I think it was Freddie Spencer that was also know for picking the bike back up with his knee. I'll have to remember not to pass up the hip flex machine when I go to the Y. :wink:
