Yeah, target fixation sucks. We all do it at some point or another, there are videos all over youtube from it.

Glad it wasn't any worse, here we lost a rider last night when a car didn't yield to the bike and our fellow rider lost his life. Ride safe.

Well to put it very short my buddy and I were the last to leave the show(went with 7 bikes they left few hrs earlier) and we were riding close to 138 (straights and the 25 mph turns) and he didnt make on of the turns in front of me and it was awful,prolly about 50 mph,hes ok and is very lucky,he will feel it in the morning for sure!!!!! bike is trashed, friend came with a truck and we just threw it in the back and left! SuX And even worse to watch it!
Its crazy how one min your looking at a sweet bike and the next looking at it a whole different way! Same with the rider!!

Glad your buddy is OK. June 19th of last year I hit a deere at 65 mph lucky to live so I know how fast it turns from having a good time to a real oh shi# moment.
