Nike needs to jump all over this guy and start another those "Heros in the Face of Societal Injustice" ad campaigns.

Awesome. I'd like to see that camera set up. Cool the way it stays level.

Cool, but a whole lap of Marques's butt was a bit much. 200mph, not too shabby.

How about Roscoes' Eye of Sauron?

This is what happens when you touch tires at 175mph

Jesus man, Zarco's butt skid across asphalt, grass and gravel IIRC was heartstopping. I was just waiting for a tomahawk to start.

A barrel roll is more of an outcome, that's what got Crutchlow.

Ianonne likely made a mess in his pants watching that unfold.

Roscoe choked under the pressure the GOAT applied.

‘The prize is pride!’

There’s no prize money at Valentino Rossi’s annual 100km dirt-track race, but the racing is just as vicious as MotoGP

Perhaps one day Valentino Rossi will work out how to sit back and rest on his laurels. But he’s not there yet.

Eleven weeks before his 40th birthday and two days after MotoGP’s longest-ever season of racing and testing, he was back at it: racing motorcycles around in circles (and hurting himself), because that’s what he likes doing.

Sunday was the biggest day of the year at the VR46 Motor Ranch, the training venue that Rossi created in 2011 just outside Tavullia – the hilltop town where he grew up.

Rossi and his gang train here most days, mastering the art of throttle control and machine control around a 2.5km dirt course that includes 13 corners: lefts, rights, uphill, downhill, all graded and manicured to provide just the right amount of grip: not too much and not too little. It’s an epic facility that dwarfs many commercial tracks.

The 100-kilometre race has been the main event at the ranch since 2014. In theory, it’s a bit of postseason fun with his friends and his young apprentices from the VR46 Riders Academy, but the reality is somewhat different.

There are no world championship points up for grabs, no prize money, no bonus money, no grandstands crammed with adoring fans, but you’d never know it. The battle for the lead – Rossi and co-rider Franco Morbidelli versus Mattia Pasini and team-mate Lorenzo Baldassarri – was fast and furious throughout most of the hour and 50 minutes. As rough and as tough as anything you see in MotoGP.

Didn’t know Benny was motorsports fan.
Welcome and thank you for sharing the video.

Well, don't closely follow, but, that was an awesome save. Read the article linked.

"I don’t know how I saved it! In my mind there was only one sentence: ‘keep the gas....." Had the same thought when I center punched an Irish Setter on my Nifty Honda Fifty. Dog went airborne, not me. I stayed upright.
