Default VIR March 9th

I'll be there for my first ever track day....freezing my a$$ off! I'll be there with about 5 other guys and 2 tents. By the end of the day, I will have actually doubled my TOTAL mileage on a bike! Scary...

Post if you're coming!

If you hang out there till July I'll meet you there.That's too cold for my blood. Your running the north course, good stuff, I'm running the Patriot course. Let me know how it is and try and take some pics.

It was cold up until 10 a.m., then it was PERFECT. Sunny the entire day too. I was the slowest person out there, but still had a BLAST. I think I got about 90-100 miles of track time in, which actually exceeds my TOTAL STREET TIME!!! I learned A LOT.

Going through the front stretch turn (aka kink) at 110-115 was amazing. I would have gone faster, but I wasn't comfortable doing upshifts at that speed yet, not to mention it was my first time wearing boots also.

I'll be doing it again for sure.
