Group Trackday?
« on: 03/22/11 10:43PM »
So I've decided I need to take the plunge, and do a trackday. I've gotten to the point (I think) where I've matured enough as a rider to know that, well......there's a lot more to know :lol:

Lately I've been trying to absorb as much info and reading material as I can on riding, to be a better rider. A trackday will give me a safe place to put these learnings into action, and to gain more insight into the black art of cornering and following "lines".

It's said you will learn more in a single trackday than you will learn on your own on the streets in a year. So I ask......who wants to get educated on what your bike can do with me?

Darrin said there is a trackday at the end of June I wanna say, that is 2 hours less than normal trackdays, but is only $80 (half the cost). I figure that's a damn good bargain, considering what you'll learn. Also Darrin will be working that day, so there will be instruction from someone who we KNOW, which means a lot to me.

If a few of us get together on this, we can all go together and be set up together, I figure we'll have a pretty good time even if some come just to spectate.

But will you, is the question?

Pretty sure Don is in. So that's me, Don, and Darrin so far.

Put me down as a "seriously considering it" :) It's gonna be hotter than hell in leathers in June, but the only thing stopping me from doing a trackday so far is money, so a reduction in the cost is about the only way I'll ever make it.

Sounds good!!  Its the weekend of June 25 & 26. Start planning on it now. 

Also, we should plan a group ride out to Jennings that day for those that are not riding. Once you see it in person, you will have to do it!!

If I weren't preggo, I would love to do the trackday with you all. Since I can't ride, I'd at least enjoy coming and watching. At that time I'll be 7 1/2 months preggo, so I'm sure I'll be a pretty big girl by then. lol! I'll try my best to make it.  ;D Hopefully, we can also do another trackday next year sometime after I have the baby...I've been wanting to do a trackday for awhile now  ;D
