Reintroduction From The East Coast

[Apollo]

Hi everyone,

 

I'm Allard. I'm getting back into riding after a few years away due to moving cross-country, grad school, and settling into a new job. My first day at the track was with CSS at Laguna back in 2007 on the 600s.

 

This time around, I have gone smaller with a Ninja 300 in the hopes of improving my riding skills.

 

In case anyone else is going, I'll be at VIR on Monday (8/8) and Tuesday (8/9) with my primer grey 300.

Congrats on the new job and graduate degree and more importantly the bike ...ninja 300...niccccce. I too thought about picking one of those up but instead opted for the Honda CBR 250R as a second bike. I've only had 1000s' and 1441cc so decided to pick up something different. Got a super duper deal I couldn't refuse. What CSS levels have you completed?

Nice! The 250s and 300s are so much fun! And they're much better on the wallet than the big bikes. The Honda should be bulletproof. I had an 07 600RR before moving, and loved that bike.

I did levels 1-3 on the Best Coast between '07 and '10 when the school was still on Kawasakis. This time around, I'm exploring the East Coast.

 

If you're ever at VIR, NYST, or Summit Point, there's usually a pretty good turn out for 250/300s.

Hey Allard, nice seeing you at VIR today. Glad you're back at it!
