Thanks for the congrats....  Smiley  

Gm2, I've been looking into track days for months now, but working two jobs, 6 days a week  makes things a little tough. Gonna do a day at CA Superbike School in October, though.

come to think (more clearly) of it, i'll be there somewhere in 9/19-9/21 or 10/26.  kids are coming in early october so my fall track time is going to be greatly diminished this year.

I was lucky enough not to have that reaction. I rode Piuma with Duck-Stew and River on Thursday, and they told me I was getting over pretty good.  It's not that I was expecting to touch, but I knew it might happen. Also, it was just a little itty bitty love tap anyway, not a big honkin' grind session.  Wink   BTW,  I did have that reaction when my toes touched the first month I was riding. Didn't know I had to be on the balls of my feet in the curves!   Roll Eyes  Huh?  bang head   laughingdp
looks like we'll miss ya this time at the track, but I'm sure we'll see you there at some point.

Congrats again on your boys!   bacon

I showed these pics to Sachica after seeing you at the RockStore and she didn't believe it was you. I had to remind her about our conversation where you said you were wearing your full suit because you had started leaning and hanging off pretty far. Paul got quite a few good shots of you. Congrats  waytogo

And people wonder (and complain) why there is such a cop presence in the canyons. Knee down riding belongs on the racetrack.

let's not turn this into a thread that may be closed.

you could have easily just have said "that is not safe on the street, that type of riding belongs on the track"  end of statement.  there is no need to bring in a 3rd party that potentially can get a thread locked when it spirals down that path.
