Exited about the last trackday i went on for two weeks ago,i decided to go to my second track visit today.
There were not as many bikes as the last time i went there,the newbeginners group had about 25 bikes so i decided to run with the average group.
First round out was like i have not been on a track before.. [&:]...there was no smooth running with me and the bike.
The rear suspension felt soft in a couple of corners so i adjusted it a little bit (harder) before the second round.
Got an instructor in front of me who showed me the "line" for a couple of laps.Then suddenly the second roundfelt like i was reborn,everything did go really well.The laps did go faster and safer by the time.
Maybe i was a bit afraid cause two bikes crashed in the group before me (race/fast group) and one more later,also in the race group.The last crasched bike they had to take away with a trailer,it was in pretty bad shape and the driver was limping.
The weather was much colder than the last time so it took more laps to get the tires warm enough to ride safe.The two first bikes crasched on the first and second lap(too much power and cold tires...).
Anyway,it was reallyfun driving today again !
(Too bad you could not join R1000 !)

 

Great and thanks for reporting!

Bad for the guys that crashed. It is a part of the business and at least no one got real hurt and now they have something to do during winterimproving the bikes [X(].

I believe there is one more track day in Linköping, but the temperature has become so low now in evenings that it isbetter to pass next time.

I'll keep commuting with the mule as long as the roads are ice-free. I’m sure there will still be a number of more quite warm mid-days and afternoons. The temperature right now hereis + 4 deg C.

 

I think i'll pass that one too and try to enjoy the few warm afternoons that are left.Maybe there will come a warm daywhen we can take alittle trip...

 

Yes, hopefully it will come more opportunities this year. The Suzuki is put to rest for the winter, I'll use the bird next time.
