    hey pilot, glad to hear you are doing okay, its nice to find out that when you have enough experience, and a situation comes your way, your brain jumps in and slows everything down long enough for you to make good decisions. one of these days ill have to make it down there to ride with you guys.

    "Any landing you can walk away from..." Right?
    Glad you're OK.
    Let me know if you want any help on the bike.
    I'm hopefully going to be shooting paint on some projects soon.
    Whadaya think? Black and White cop theme for the Kawi?
    (I'd be fun to watch all the cars hard braking as you approached.)

    True that!
    I know I have trouble keeping up with him on that two wheeled tank.

    I think I saw that one where a bike went tumbling end-over-end heading through turn #3...

    I hope both you and your bike have a FAST recovery...

    Kudos to the corner workers that helped the crashed riders and cleared out all the downed bikes this weekend and keeping it safe for everyone while enduring the sweltering heat!

    Man! Glad all you guys were alright! Whew! I was with my kids for 2 weeks, or I'd have been on the ride. Glad everyone's ok. Maybe now it's time to step up to a Suzuki! (Sorry, couldn't resist.....)

    Oh, and I've ridden with both of these guys, and they're both excellent riders, by far better than most I've ever seen. I'll ride with them any day, trust absolutely in their judgement and skills, and know if something bad happens, I can count on them to react as well as humanly possible. Physics is physics, and will not be denied.......

    Ride safe brothas.......

    Can I get that in cliff notes, Pilot...? My speed reading class only taught me to read between the lines


    No, glad you made it out alive, as Jim Morrison would say
