Thanks everyone....

... for being patient and not running me off the track at R2SL.

I was by far the slowest guy there, but it was still a blast! Only having my first sportbike for a week, it was a great opportunity to become familiar with how to ride.

Didn't push it too hard, didn't want to be the guy to shut the track down.

Thanks to everyone for the pointers and suggestions. It was well worth the trip. I look forward to riding with you all again sometime soon!

It was nice meeting ya Banshee!


I'll run more thank you's here too, if I may...

I had the best time ever bringing two friends who are big fans of the sport, and motorcycling in general, and everyone was so welcoming that all they could talk about on the road back was what a great group of friends I have on this board (and how much Sully made them laugh back in the garage everyday).

Yeah, the rain was a big letdown as they really wanted to enjoy their first experiences on a track sooner than later, but the overall representation of our club's acceptance to noobs and to them was overwhelming.


Thanks to IRDAVE for suspension look-over! got me thinking about what to do next to her! HA!!!

In addition, BIG THANK YOU to Scott for allowing us to use tools, space, and give guidance when the going got tough for me. Without that, I would have left early. But, I pulled up my big girl shorts, re-evaluated why I so love riding and how insipid some other riders are of "non-racers" ...I got back out there and spanked the hell out of the bike pulling nearly half times what I did the previous day on the wet.

Thanks again EVERYONE!!!!
