Welcome 2 the site

Welcome to SBA :wave2: I hope you enjoy the site. No worries, like Vinny said, plenty of whackos here to keep you (and them) entertained :lol:

I used to live just outside of the city, in the North Hills. Had family in the South Hills, Brentwood and Carrick. I miss Pitt, but going to Beaverun several times a year gives me a chance to visit!

What club do you do your trackdays with and what do you ride?

South hills? Me too-- Mt. Lebanon to be exact... theres a good possibility i might know someone in your family-- spent my fair share of time out that way....


I ride a 2002 TL1000R, which beaverun, unfortuantely, claimed as its little bitch yesterday... nice little low side in turn 7, but--- its just a slider, some plastic, and a clutch lever to get me back on the road... errr track... i got super lucky... leathers are trashed tho-- no injuries other than a sore shoulder...


U can find me mostly at Team Pro-Motion days, and the occasional Sport Bike Track Time ones as well...



heres some pics of the poor little bike...

welcome to the site.

Welcome to SBA Smokes

Damn, glad to hear you're okay and that the damage to the TL was minimal. At least your leathers did their job. Now you can get a new and better suit ;)

Turn 7, isn't that the left hand kink at the bottom of the hill? What happened? Go in too hot?

Were you at the 8/13 & 8/14 dates at Beaverun with TPM? We were there. We'll also be there 9/24 and 9/25. I'm on a primered F4i with a red tank, #471 (white group) and Joe (Cakes) is on a yellow SV650 with gixxer bodywork, #982 (red group).

Yea, thats the up hill left hander---


wasnt going in to hot at all-- i was running some sportech M-1 metzeler tires-- they were on the end of their 3rd track day--- and the rear end just had no traction and just slid right out from underneath me... it was super weird-- better upgrade to some better tires...


i was there on the 14th as well... i think i remember the red F4i with the primered plastics... i started the day in white, then ended up in red-- cakes-- does he have his name stiched on the back of his leathers?? If so-- hes one smoooooooth rider.

we definately have to get together one of these days-- networking baby networking-- gotta find some other track addicts.
