This was/is a Toys for Tots toy drive. They will be out there tomorrow. It is open to the public, $20.00 donation or a unwrapped toy. We had a total 7 bikes out there today. It was very lonely at times.

Not sure about pics, but I will have a video in a day or two. My neighbor followed me around with camera rolling.

No pics since it was very informal. there was somebody taking pictures entering Turn 11 but had no clue who it was.  Great track day despite the chilly weather. The track had decent traction (a lot more than I thought it would have), and I was able to get 3 sessions in the afternoon since I arrived pretty much at lunchtime.  Also, the cold wasn't an issue once you started going...was sweating midway into the sessions.

I am now convinced on why racers prefer GP-shift patterns...I was struggling to upshift when still a bit leaned over on the left side coming out of Turn 3.  Will fix that for the next track day.
