This is very sad to hear. I cannot remember; is the bridge covered in tires?

I just looked up my videos and there is a tire-wall there(under the bridge between turn 9 and 10 on Summit Main)....but....there are only 4 tires in a stack. Maybe they weren't high enough to protect the rider.

I'm assuming this event was on Summit-Main

Thanks Mani. Tires probably aren't going to be enough of a decelerating cushion for a bike anyway.
