Sorby bored us all completely to death with wittery prose along the
lines of:

Timo's attempt at playing with the carbs whilst riding fails miserably?

That looks like Deegan, but it doesn't look like his bike

It's a shame they never bring the Crusty Tour to the UK...

Nah... Pointing the camera in the right direction and pressing the shutter
at the right time is easier than mastering Photoshop.

Bollocks.

He's even wearing a fire-retardant suit.

Although I'm not saying he couldn't have worn that suit anyway and had the
flames added afterwards.

It was somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the
drugs began to take hold. I remember "Sorby"
<sorby69_REMOVETHIS_.RemoveThis@gmail.com> saying something like:

And a burning litter bin...

Why do the flames spell 'DES' halfway down his back? Spooky.

Pah. He's just showing off. Ignore him.

Weird how the smoke's going straight up, mind. Top arc of a jump, maybe?

Either that or, despite the bike's angle, the photographer shot from
directly underneath.
i.e. the front wheel is holding the jump-line but the tail has been kicked
out as the rider has jumped sideways from it?

Doesn't look like it to me, but you know a *load* more than I about this
sort of thing.

Possible ... my money's still on "top of an arc", juts as he starts
downwards ... mid-freestyle would account for the odd body position.

Hell of a shot in any case.

The smoke is where he was a fraction of a second earlier.

He's falling straight down, the smoke shows where he was.
