Ouch!

He’s lucky he didn’t lose it on top of the tracks. That would’ve really messed him up.

/\ thats what I said! what a retard. hitting metal rails almost parallel is like hitting ice patch! No fucking way was it going to make it, and he was BOOKIN too. As a rider even I cringed at the hit!!! Atleast, stop because your a mile ahead at that point, square it up and hit the tracks head on and he would have whooped right over them like a pair of small logs on a trail.

Once again, we wonder why the trails are shut down around here, because squids even use the dirt.

He could have at least tried squaring up the ramp up to the tracks to clear them; but, of course, hindsight is 20/20- especially after you’ve mangled yourself.

From the FB post he hit “a patch of lose rocks and it steered me in that direction”.

I watched it again, @:22 he got some head shake, but kept on the throttle and just kept riding up the stone bank to the tracks and never backed off. If he wasnt trying to cross the tracks there, he needs to get some major riding tips or hes going to get hurt (if he isnt already)… slight cut of the throttle and lean to the left… he woulda just carved a long turn over the stone bank on the track.

Young, dumb and inexperienced rider. 3 keys to crashing success

That looks like the tracks that run across county line road on the Guilderland Rotterdam border. But they all look the same so probably not.

Holy fuck… He was so far ahead of them that he could have stopped for a minute… Took a leak… Crossed the tracks normally and got away.

that looked like a small bike. did he say what size he was riding?

that happens a lot on small bikes going too fast like that. tires are too small and the wheelbase isn’t long enough to stay stable at that speed.

If he wanted to cross he should have slowed down and crossed on the crossing…

This wasnt the county line guilderland area. That is double main and this was only one set of tracks.

Also Amtrak doesn’t us that line and that wasnt csx police cause all our cars are white so it couldn’t have been the county line tracks. I think this was somewheres in Glenville/Scotia.

As already said, Amtrak police, CSX police, and other rail police have federal authority. My only advice to people is to treat them with the upmost respect tell them your sorry. That’s the only chance you have at not getting trespassing charges. In the yard sometimes trail riders have to cut through a small section to connect trail to trail. The ones who come in doing 5-10 MPH not throwing dust everywheres get left alone mostly, the idiots get run off and some arrested.
