good thing he's not on an SV (there)...
Of course that isn't an SV. He was riding the Team L.O.C. R6 (Dan Carr's) in the 6 hour WERA endurance race at Summit Point this weekend. Good thing it was relatively cool. There were 4 riders for the 6 hours.
Especially in endurance racing, your first lap out other riders have no idea what your style is or how good you are. He was saying he would get people reeling him in on the straight, but would then show him he could really ride in turns 1-6.
The problem with being a bigger rider is that unlike in a car, the power to weight ratio is severely affected, and you really feel it when you weigh more than 50% of your bike's weight. You also end up having to do some significant suspension work.
