Fay Myers 2 Wheel Tuesday at the Rock July 24th

One guy said 17.0 the other 17.4. That guy at 17.6 was msf instructor and didn't count I guess.

Hey! I can count! Seriously though, you guys were doing awesome. Riding like that is definitely an acquired skill. You have to do a lot of things at the same time. Managing the throttle, brake and steering, all while moving at less than a crawl on super rounded tires is nothing to snicker at. It says a lot about the amount of control a person has over the machine they are riding.

On a different note, I also found it interesting that the best two times in the slow race were done on big bikes - an 1199 and a GSXR 1k.

Brad, I know you were right there with us on the times. You are definitely rocking the R6! I guess that just goes to show that spending time on the bike (and on the track) pays off in the skills department!

Maybe it's the 5 or so mandatory MSF courses I've had to take >.< (they love these as I'm sure you know). Interestingly, they do something similar at the YCRS too. Except, they do a clutch only race, it's pretty fun actually.

I ended up bailing out like 740pm, I didnt know who to try and talk with. Totally cool to know I can just walk around and ask next time tho. I didnt want to be THAT GUY trolling from table to table asking who was with the CSC and jus assume I could park my ass in a chair once i found the group. You guys all seem pretty welcoming, I'll make sure to ask next time. Looks good the whole slow race thing, I shoulda stuck around for that at least!

I dont know anyone since I am a newb, but recognized the blue yamaha with the blue windshield (wolfeyez) but didnd tknow what they looked like to try and join the group for food. Ah well. It's a learning experience, I'll know more people by the one at the end of August for sure

A good way to meet members when you are new is to walk up to a bike you recognize and sit on it.

OMG, Jmetz! You're gonna get this n00b's ass beat!

sorry this is for another thread but in response to your post, is anyone going on Sunday for spectating? Im doing a fork swap all day Saturday on my SV650 and can't go then but Sunday I'm off all day and wouldn't mind riding in a crew of bikes to get out there.

[Sully]

I saw your post under the MRA thread.. I won't be out there Sunday, but you can post up a ride to HPR and see if anyone is interested in joining you
