Shenandoah Circuit at Summit Point (WV). $225 + $25/year membership. Brian (Autohag) and I are heading up on Sun about 3p and camping overnight. Tech is simple(http://www.motorcyclexcitement.com/static/equipment): tape lights/lenses, numbers, safety wire appreciated but not required, antifreeze is OK. Suit or 2pc (full-circumference zipper). Helmet, gloves, boots.

...From their website...
"Shenandoah Circuit

Located at Summit Point Motorsports Park, the Shenandoah is the most technical track in America with up to 22 turns, a corkscrew, a replica of the banked Nurburgring Karussell, and 2 ½ miles of serpentine pavement.

This is a fun track!"

my leather pants have the full zipper, but it does not match up to my jacket...damn it.  I'll have to have a tailor fix it before I can do anything.  Also need some gauntlet gloves.  Aprilia is fully wired now, glycol free and already taped up.

Would have, but I just saw this.

Sorry for the short notice but we hadn't coordinated the night before as usual. You didn't miss a damn thing anyway. Both mountain ranges were under clouds - thick, wet stuff. The sun was out in the valleys but it was downright chilly the whole time.

East was the right direction to go today.

Excellent ride , Mike, Steve, Ben.
Jim , not so much.

Excellent ride for sure. Me forgetting for a 1/2 second that I was riding a bike with GP shift and hitting Neutral when I left the gas station, well, not so excellent.  I don't think I've ever hit the rev limiter that hard before 

cheers.

Ouch!

Yeah - that was def. fun - I'm glad the forcasted rain never showed.

There needs to be a training video for that area for us guys that show up once a year.

Best thing is to show up more than once a year.

Oh fine, take the logical route.

Speaking of which - Lars, did you throw away your license talk to Eric yet?
