    Thanks. Not only was the bike upside down but it was also facing the wrong way. We we coming up the hill from behind the guy in white in the second photo and going out the left side of the frame. I tried an outside overtaking manouvre on what was a right turn bend. :D

    Trail riding Wellington style late 1970s.
