he hits the rock...flips it

the second guy gets target fixation after he sees his friend go down...instead of weaving around the first guy (as taught in the MSF beginner rider course)....he slams on the rear brake (idiot), locks up the rear wheel, fish tails and loses it.

this was like their first ride or so....ever....on sparkling new $8k machines.

sad really.
