This crash at the Texas World Speedway saw two separate bikers flying over their handlebars as they tried to avoid one another… ouch.

The first of the two incidents occurs when the biker on the red motorbike brakes early, forcing the biker on the white bike to jam on both brakes.

This sends the bloke on the white bike flying over the handlebars and right into the path of the red biker, who is also forced to jam on the brakes. As you can probably guess, this sends the biker on the red bike over the handlebars too, but blink and you’ll miss it in the video above.

The two spills occurred late on Monday evening at the Texas World Speedway, and according to one user over on s1000rrforum, both bikers were transported to hospital and both are currently doing well.
