'What the eye does not see, the heart does not grieve over.' As I said - a gentle lean to the right - it can be a moment of lost concentration. If you have a victim's mindset, you will be a victim. In his next race, that smart young guy might find himself headed for a fence. Depends on how experienced he is. It doesn't matter who you are in road racing, there is always somebody who is better on their day. Most of us ride with our brains in neutral, until we have the need to really go for it. Nobody can ride at 100% for every moment they are on the track. A friend of mine was one of the best A-grade riders in Victoria. When Ron Toombs used to race the Henderson Matchless, my friend was his main opposition. I watched him in about 8 races pressuring Toombs to make a mistake, but Ronnie never did - he was exceptional. I don't think he ever raced overseas, but he was our best ever - died at Bathurst while making a come-back..
