Looks to me like the SUV driver was attempting to pull in the pull out on the left....
The rider was an idiot to be riding that aggressively with that much traffic. He's lucky he's still alive. Obviously, he has skills but he needs to ride based on the conditions.
Agree, too fast for traffic. Looks to me like the SUV driver was attempting to pull in the pull out on the left, probably looked, but the rider profile was too low and small to see from their vantage point.
THAT is why I ride to right of the lane with oncoming traffic or around blind corners. The edge of the road does not move, moving stuff is unpredictable.
Rider should be glad he and the SUV driver had quick reaction skills.

There is certainly a lot of advice out there that when approaching a RH curve, especially a blind one, you should be out near the centerline to better see what is coming as well as the road surface. That is what I do, but with the knowledge that my speed must be low enough to move to the right if there is a car partially in my lane.
Do you disagree with that?
