I love this picture,there is so much going on.
Why is the kid on the left holding a urine sample ?
What did the cone heckler shout and was it the cause ?
How big is hattie's mouth ?
Why is the next bloke doing some rave dance ?
And lastly why isn't looking where he's going ?
Fantastic !!!!

in answer to your last question i'll ask you a question would you want to be looking ahead at the tree thats about to bitch slap you XD

Hopefully this will cover all your questions:
Guy on the left (Adam Lock) has a bottle of orange squash, hydration is important to last a long day on hecklers corner
The cone heckler (Harry Steer) was giving the rider (Bill Colwill) some abuse that's far too blue to post on here, but I believe the cause of the crash was a large escaped rock on track
Hattie (Chris Hopkins) does indeed have a huge mouth, I think it's to allow more air in to make him ride his DH rig faster for longer?!
The next bloke (Me!) isn't doing a rave dance, just giving the air horn a good old blast
As for watching where he was going... Bill just loves to hug trees!

Get on Bill you weapon! He got back up and finished the run after this epic bail...

Just a normal day out in Devon, breed em tough down there...
I won't comment on whether Bill had nad protection or not, but likely he bent the bars with them... a real weapon !

Freerider21 said on 7 November 2011

We thought he'd really f***ed himself up as he lay motionless for 30secs... Chris ran down to check on him (thinking he'd died!) for him to sit up and say "I think i'm alright?!" before pinning it to the finish line :-D

Hardcore mate, do i detect that he has absolutely no armour on at all? save for the neckbrace... `its only a couple of scratches guys, lets be having some more'
Has he landed on his head a lot ????

Freerider21 said on 8 November 2011

I expect he's got some knee pads on, but Bill generally rides the 'less is more' set up... Often it'll just be a wifebeater instead of a tee, because he's double hard!!! Ha ha :-D
