Not sure if anybody else saw this, it may be old not sure. This is a must see for every rider. What an incredible skill this guy has to be able to save himself from certain pain.

I got kicked off my bike at Loudon and ended up with one foot on the peg (On the opposite side of the bike). It takes great strength to pull yourself back on the bike at speed. You can't exert much pressure on the bars (For obvious reasons) so you have no leverage.

That could be one of the most amazing things I've ever seen. Pure luck...but amazing.

It was Jamie Hacking in DSB. Both wheels were off the ground and he and the bike were sliding on his knee / leg. Then the bike stood up, he climbed on and finished on the podium with a hole in his leathers. Absolutely amazing and lucky.
