    Well, I tore into the bike last night...... and definitely found a tire puncture. I think I may have run over something on the track and popped my tire.

    The faring cleaned up pretty well.

    Mike, Ill be looking you up to mount a new tire very soon.

    I went down there last year after warning others about it in the wet

    Even when I thought I knew how slippery it was, I was suddenly sitting on the track

    Agressive turn-in and too stiff on the bars when it started to slip are what did it to me AFAIK

    OWE! Glad I survived my day in the rain, were you trying to brake when you went down? It's touch to tell exactly what happens from an onboard camera. Woke me up though!
