So I went to a local trackday here in MN, well actually they call it a defensive riding course, because were it is hosted does not allow for "racing"

ANyways the perk is that you can take your street bike out, with out having to do any mods and race it.

Anyways are some pics from the day(borrowed from momentumphoto.net...hope you dont mind jonah)


Cool shot, but bad body postion


There goes my pegs


If I had sliders this day would have been a little easier


Probabaly the best body postion


All said and done, if there is one thing I have learned is the following....

Lean angle means shaZam!....because of poor body posistion I was way leaned over getting schooled by other riders with 10 degrees of less lean angle.

lots of fun all and all...I will be back there next month

Looks like it was fun!  Good photos!  Glad you learned to work on you, not the bike.  Bike looks good, too.  Glad you had a good time. 
The motorcycle is no longer the hobby, the skill has become the hobby.

Power does not compare to skill.  What good is power without the skill to use it?
