In case you missed it, here's the guy's explanation:

Information: I bought this bike, but I wrecked it and that sucks.. I only have these pictures of it wrecked.. I got all squirly, and wobbled for a bit, and then i went off the side of the road into dirt... and then I dropped on my left side going about 60mph. Then I slid for a second, then I rolled for a long time across the busy 2 lane road, dodging all the cars, and flew into a field of weeds... I was only wearing a helmet, T-shirt, and levi pants.. I survived with lots of road rash, broken left coller-bone, sprang ankle, and a mysterious bad knee...

Hmmm.. he was dodging cars as he slid?  How do you dodge cars as you slide (one expects the slide to be somewhat uncontrolled)?

He looks stoned in the picture....  Punk!
