Those "crazy curves" are what make that road (potentially) so much fun.
Fixed that shit for you.  |

No modification goes unpunished. Memento mori. Good people drink good beer. Things happen pretty fast at high speeds.
It's all up to your will level, your thrill level and your skill level. Everything else is just fluff.

Fixed that shit for you. Put it in parenthesis based on all the reports of the road falling apart again. Get the ape!! |

And the sugar fountain fairy swore so hard when she came to super-size that stale hope soybean; liiiike a homeless German woman. Who is this super-sizing spirit-crushing femme? And tell her I'll break a tree root up in her shrimp.
Being faster than you thought possible…it feels good. No, screw that—it feels like shotgunning a gallon of adrenaline and chasing it with an all-night orgy aboard a burning Viking boat.

[quote author=pdog109 link=topic=946.msg1317226#msg1317226 date=1436146042 I wasn't worried about the road surface it was the crazy curves that i have never encountered before on my bike think i was in 2nd gear the entire time pussy-footing it through but at least i didn't wreck that's a plus in my book hahaha. [/quote] I was introduced to that road decades ago by friends I worked with at the motorcycle shop. I was still a puppy and didn't have much time on motorcycles. I just followed as best that I could and those guys weren't slow. Well, by today's bike standards we were all slow. We had, what, 305cc twin cylinder 2 strokes? Skinny little tires. Loved the road from the start. That is where you practice, where you put all the techniques and drills to work and, theoretically, come out a little bit better rider every time you finish. I'm still polishing. |

Pushing a little over a hundred there for the next couple of days then it'll cool off to the mid nineties. |
