Painted lines are not your friend.

Her form needs work. She's "reaching" with her knees, and just moving her butt off the seat. Her head needs to be lower and should try reaching with her shoulders and head; where your head goes your body will follow. Her body mass is still sitting in the center of the tank, no point in hanging off the bike.

I was thinking the same thing. Probably why she took that turn a little too close to the line and lost it. She just got really sloppy on the 2nd half. Maybe trying to keep closer to the lead guy?

From what I noticed I don't think she hit the painted lines when she wrecked. It looks like she went in to the turn and started to trail brake a bit, but then let off the brake mid-curve and the bike straightened out.

To me, it looked like the front wheel hit the line and slid out, but I dunno.

i agree with pasty
i saw that she hit the lines twice during that ride, but i don't remember her hitting the lines when she highsided.
however, i did notice her braking deep into the turn to scrub off some speed, as indicated by the brake lights, in almost all the corners as well as right before she highsided.

I will have to agree that she does have some skill, but she should really fine tune it to make her riding ability better. She did seem to brake while into the turns and was all over the road, but in the end, to me it looked like the power of the bike along with the lack of tire ability caught up to her. She did brake right before the last turn, but was off it during the time that she highsided. She also did not touch the painted lines with either tire. It just looks to me as if she accelerated too much for the tires and the back broke loose a little and when she let go of the throttle, it caught traction and popped her into the other direction causing the highside. They werent in the blue ridge mountain area, were they by chance? It looks awefully familiar...
