My first thought;
You do NOT want to go off course!

I know a guy who went on a group run motorcycle trip to Italy (the Motogiro actually) and rode the track.
He has this fantastic picture of him on this beautifull 160 Ducati sitting there with that amazing banked turn in the background.
If you think that track is pucker-worthy in a car, imagine it on 225lb bike with 30hp, flat out on the tank...

okay....time to get Johnny Knoxville and his band of Jackasses to do some form of stupidity there followed by a professional display of awesomeness by Rhyss Millen and Travis Pastrana....and then cap it off with Super Dave jumping off the side....

I've been trying to think of ways to create an indoor track utilizing either a parking structure type building or a couple of Costco size buildings, but my wife has no faith. So now I can show this and tell her to shut it.

And you'll be updating your posts from the doghouse...

does the doghouse have wifi?

Scotzman · December 20, 2010, 10:06:34 PM

It actually does. It used to be "sleep on the couch", but I slept better on the couch. Then it was sleep on the dog play/fort thingy, but since going to a survival school, she knows I'm fine with that too. She's still working on something tedious.

Scotzman · December 20, 2010, 10:08:25 PM

I love her tenacity though and the fact that she got me another bike for track days and commuting so I don't have to put the miles on the monster.

Sounds like a keeper.
