My First Trackday

[AMBy]

So yesterday I was able to bring my motorcycle to the track....it was a blast to actually rip around as fast and hard as you want with less of a worry of common road hazards (traffic, guard rails, potholes...etc)

I learned that I am not as skilled as I thought on the bike and I have ton more to learn. I think I just picked up a new addiction.

Very nice.

don't be fooled, bread hates motorcycles and the people who ride them.

Pretty Cool

well i think most people on motorcycles are douche bags too....I think with the start of me doing trackdays...I will probably be riding the street less and saving money for trackdays more. It is a very expensive hobby.....

haha...sparkers. Those things are pretty stupid. yeah it looks kinda cool but more of a distraction than anything to others..

Nice pics Ambay! If I ever do try riding one day (and I want to), track days would be all I'd do. Seems much safer than riding around lunatic car drivers.

actually...i thought your pics were cool...think you'll ever try to get your knee that close to the ground? Or have you?

Yeah I think I will get my knee dragging....just take some practice with body position and getting the bike over. Getting the bike leaned over isn't the problem for me...it is getting off the seat, which is everything to do with body position.. I know I was pretty damn close to dragging my knee and this was my first trackday run so I am pretty happy.

Thanks guys! One of the cooler things I have ever done and can't wait to get out there again.

Looking at planning another day next month already....

 

[Saulty]

Fuck off all the guys who don't like motorcycles!

Amby you will love it. Once you go motorcycle you never go back to bicycle.

 

[MonkeyF0cker]

Nice. I miss riding. I've been looking at getting another bike lately.

Pavy what is better to ride...motorcycles or a pave racer?

So I did my second trackday this weekend. Here are a few pictures...I think you can see some improvement from the first. I am making some strides! YAY!
