BTW, did your Clavicle bother you at all or has that been good to go for while?

Excellent!
After we hung up last night, I was more determined to give it another try...
Still, I would need pants that fit, these JR speed masters seem too tight and cant seem to stretch my legs apart too much to hang off.
And of course, tires.

We'll see for me, but glad you had so much fun and bumped or not, it's all about FUN!
Maybe if I got off my lazy ass, and learned how to ride and go fast on a track, I will join you on days.

Everything is up in the air, would hate to wreck this damn bike.....maybe I need a beater

I have a Nesba day
Dates are different obviously
I'm starting to feel a void in riding lately, I think I may have to go out and not worry about twisting the bike up, just focus on baby steps before the big jump...
I may stop down just to watch again to get my blood pumping back in my veins

If you go to watch it will kill you.. All you will want to do is get on the bike and get on the track... I suggest just not worring about the bike and your "New" but unliked tyres and get out on the track.

I was absolutely shocked as I was not expecting that at all.
Overall, I have to say that I am hooked on the track and asking myself what the hell has been keeping me from going for the past 5-6 years now? I am not too sure how many days I will get to this season but, I will definitely get to a couple more.
75% of the people who take the Level I class with street skills don't listen and do their own thing and learn bad habbits right from the start. You listened, worked on the things I told you and really hit your apexes. You were moving pretty good as well. You deserved the bump and I was happy to work with you and move you where you should be.

Be careful now, this sport is very addicting.
