Twenty Seven Days Twenty Six Days You remind me of myself with my hobbies/passions!!! C Hey! You're messing up my count down...but yes, I can't wait to "Twist The Wrist" at Laguna Seca. Twenty Five Days

Naa. If you blow up the pic (or look at the orginal) you can see the bar end cap. Just looks that way in the pic. You ever been to NPR? You can't get there from here! I mean its a little hard to get to from I-12 or I-10, a little out of the way for me..and I heard the tracks in bad shape? Good Luck in June Naa it's not in that bad of shape. No worse than a couple other places. Plus the guy who runs the Trackday org there is great. Already took the proceedes from the school and bought an air fence. The only Trackday org in the south to own it's own air fence. Dustin, My son lives in Prarieville. I'll give him a call and see if he wants to follow the old man around the track.

Twenty Seven Days

Dustin, I new the first one was Jennings, turn 1. You aren't going that fast! Turn one you should be dragging an elbow! The second picture, My first wife was a coon ass so I know what Louisiana looks like. P.S. Do you tend to ride holding the end of the bars where part of your palm is on the bar end slider? It looks like that in the picture.

Ladies and Gentlemen, Twenty Eight Days

Was that picture taken at "No Problem" race way? .

Welcome Dustin, Barber was where I attended my first Keith Code school. You will be fine but I think you are going to have somewhat of an advantage for the no brakes drill on a 250. I have given this advice before so here it goes again. Free your mind of what you think you know and open your mind to the instruction you will get. Because you are an accomplished rider, you might think what you are doing is unnecessary or you might try to look past a drill in hopes of getting where you think you should be. Relax, Relax, Relax. Be conscious of the experince and don't let one drill pass with out your complete participation. Barber is a beautiful track, CSS is a first class outfit and I promise you will have a great experience. So don't get in a hurry or the day will be over to soon.

Ladies and Gentlemen, twenty nine days

I personally would like a little weather out here...but not when going to the track! A little weather. Thats what vacations are for!

We had a great time loading the bikes into our trailers. I might call you guys to see what I need to do to post a picture. I tried using photo bucket but couldn't get it to work..

I liked the 07. I rode it at Streets Of Willow last year and had a great time. I think Peter Lentz only passed me once.

I will post when I get home this evening...I can't get link to photo bucket url from work.

It sucked!!! I wish I knew how to post a picture because I have a classic. We got to Barber Saturday evening and set up. Sunday morning there was a blanket of snow on the ground. By 11:00 the snow was really coming down. I had a buddy that brought his two kids and they were making a snowman. The good thing was that all my hardcore riding buddies showed up. We drank coffee and watched it snow. We even rode our track bikes in the paddock just so we could say we rode in the snow at Barber. I have a great group picture to put on the motorcycle wall in my garage. I know in the future someone will ask "Whats the story with this picture?" Barber is a beautiful facility when its green but you should see it covered in snow. There are sculptures all over the grounds. The three riders at the museum, statues of motorcycle god's on wheels, were blanketed with snow. Even they would not ride this day.

Thanks Man...That is a really good video. Thanks for posting it. Did you notice the guy hanging off in front? What about the R6? He was really busy shifting. Thanks again.

Thanks Guys. I was hoping that it was still possible to get the tires warmed up enough to get some grip. I appreciate the comments. YOu have made me feel more confident.

I would like to trust what I have learned at CSS enough to be able to turn in and carry enough speed to get real feedback from the front tire. I want to know what that feels like....I have felt the back end travel on me, I have felt the bike squat in cambered turns, but not the front really working hard in the corner. So I need to improve on the mental side going past my comfort zone and enter a new one.

Thanks Domina! I am going in April. This is the best I have seen so far. I have also been doing some laps on my MotoGP 08 PS3 game...

Well guy's and Girl's this weekend is my first track day of the year at Barber. I have signed up the last four years and it has been cold but not like it is supposed to be Sunday...snow showers in the morning, partly cloudy by noon with a high of 44 degrees. I am hoping that the track will be dry by the time I ride but I have never ventured out on a track this cold before. Some people say don't ride below 50 and I have heard that the only real concern is keeping warm. Any hard core polar bears out there with some advice?

Wow! How simple was that. I was wondering though, after ten Keith Code schools aren't you supposed to get a free book or something?

I'm sure it's in T2 (don't have mine with me at work to find Chapter/ Verse), but I thought I read that it causes the RPM to go down a bit. When the bike goes from upright to turned in--RPM doesn't go down. Anyone find it yet? CF See Paragraph 3, PG 21 of T2. Hey we are in a recession for God's sake! I can't afford a trip to Laguna Seca and the book. Can you paraphrase?
