    Re: Dicing it up with Alex in Cali

    hahah. Yea man that was fun race. First time since LRRS where I kind of felt like I rode 'like myself' (aka doing 19's on motard guy). Good dicing with you.. that is until you decided to go off track at 95mph (verified with data). That was unreal looking over at you, tapped in 3rd gear, and you're off in the desert throwing ROOST and just man-handling it back to the pavement. LOL. Wildman!!

    Here's the pic. My fave as well. I JUST BOUGHT THIS so this screencap can be placeholder until the order goes through. (i'm no pirate aaaarrrrrr).

    Was pretty stoked to drop 2.5 off my previous PB w/every lap in the race waaay under my old PB. Passing 333 on the last lap was fun too (siiiideways).

    See you next time Will!! yeeeha!

    Re: Dicing it up with Alex in Cali

    95!!! I say "gawddamn!" I was wondering the whole time what it looked like from your POV.
    Turns out having the right pressure in the rear tire makes a world of difference when it comes to stable entry and exit. Makes for exciting racing, thats for sure!

    Thanks for posting up the pics for these heathens to look at. Nice job breaking out a PB too, you looked good man. LOVE that pic of Jen. She's killing it for sure.

    If you're planning on racing in March then I might have to stop buying food to make it out there.

    Lets just say I learned a lot from that Rhino Roll. Poise, control and staying calm in unexpected situations ;D.

    Hahaha!!! Yea, about that...speaking of which, I ran across a few pics of me riding that Hawk a few days ago...not my best 3 days spent at the track, but sure does make for good stories.

    *Let's keep things in perspective though. That Hawk pic was taken on Day 3 of a Three Day Track excursion with Trouble. It was a borrowed bike, and I had crashed two bikes in the two previous days-both of which were out of commission and I was scared shitless that I was gonna crash AGAIN!

    Re: Dicing it up with Alex in Cali

    Lookin' great Bill!

    That was an epic three day run in my mind. I don't remember riding at all but the off track activities were priceless and the stories endless. I'm glad you kept your positive attitude because I don't think I've laughed as hard in a long time as when we were trying to bump that Hawk back to life. I still wish I'd taken a photo of Robbie's bike the way we left it for him. A broken bike, piles of plastics and a plastic bag of parts dangling from the handlebar, lonely under a parking lot spotlight in the middle of the night. That's what he gets for saying you couldn't hurt it!

    Epic in more ways than one! I'm laughing right now just thinking about it! The look on your face when I asked you to bump start me on that POS Hawk for the seventh or eighth time...well, it led to my "graceful dismount" smack dab in front of everyone!
    I have a few pics of that TT600 in the Cyclewise parking lot...I just have to remember where they are.

    Thanks Doc! I'm thinking about making it back for the Classic. If someone has a bike they'd be willing to offer up, I'll see how slow I can go!
