"...There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn't an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag. We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language...and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people."

Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear.
I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
Where the fear has gone there will be nothing.
Only I will remain."

"A strict observance of the written laws is doubtless one of the high duties of a good citizen, but it is not the highest. The laws of necessity, of self- preservation, of saving our country when in danger, are of higher obligation. To lose our country by a scrupulous adherence to written law would be to lose the law itself, with life, liberty, property, and all those who are enjoying them with us; thus absurdly sacrificing the end to the means."
--Thomas Jefferson
Yeah. Honestly, Scott was hauling the mail that day for his first time out riding a motard. I think he turned a 1.05 on a borrowed bike. The first time Aaron rode a motard, it was mine, and I think he turned a 1.03 something. So, let's see. Compared to the fastest guy in the states of Colorado and Utah on a road race bike, Scott wasn't doing too bad.
(Oh, and when Aaron rode my bike, the engine let go... I had to tear it all the way down to the crank bearings. I would WAY sooner let Scott ride my bike!)
Another thing. Those tires were fried. Literally, they sat outside all winter.
Most likely lastly. I spend all my time doing other crap- the last thing I do is work on my own stuff. So rest assured, all your guys' crap comes first.
Same corner, different direction, sticky tires.
Although a day or two later, in this same corner, I had the front end push for about 30 yards before it finally tucked... No sweet pictures of that, though.
Aaron is running a 57 or 58 on his 450 SM machine. I think Scott said he turned a minute flat... So pretty close, actually.
Let me correct that... Apparently I'm supposed to say,"Aaron has run several 57's on his 450 SM machine." so that Aaron can quote me down below.

I've managed a minute flat on the 748 out there...the really fast supermoto guys were faster than me for sure.
