    Either that or too much yellow paint.
    I looked for that and didn't see him on a painted line.

      I didn't mean the line. I meant the bike.

            Looked to me like a novice rider who when starting to run wide (in his mind) looked up to see where he might potentially crash and in doing so stood the bike up (when he fixed on his target) and probably would have scored a bullseye if he hadn't washed out in the loose metal/dirt under brakes.
