Looking good... I am from the hardly hanging group also, as if in if you go fast enough, there's no more room to hangoff

Man I wish at my last trackday was 60 degrees. I went up to Summit Point about a month ago and it was 49 and drizzling . I'm pretty sure that was the culprit to my lowside.

I have a hard time getting comfortable on the bike in colder weather, Last time I was in cold Weather I had a highside that put me out for 6 months!!

60 degrees ... cold - HAH - i can understand being a little hesitant on the bike after your accident, but glad you are back out there.

i used to have the same body position as you, the CRs kept working with me till I am more off the bike, and my head is exactly where the mirror is now.

track days in november.. i can only imagine

Were you there on the 28th with NESBA? I was on the Jefferson Circuit. Two sessions but a full rain credit for the day, woohoo!

i never crashed to do leaning too much

crash 1: is blamed on stupid pea gravel - granted i should not have gone off course, but if it was grass i would have prolly stayed up.

crash 2: well taht was a bail from the trees - once again off course.

i am teh suck.

I was there on the 27th with NESBA on the Main Circuit. The weather was the suck,because it wasn't wet enough for my rain tires and not hot/dry enough for the slicks. I wish I would have had my PR's on,but oh well. I got in 2 1/2 sessions and a rain credit for half a day so it wasn't to bad .
