Me and Borrowedbike are at California Superbike School this weekend. I'll try to post a little if I can. I hope to learn a ton and Paul is hoping that he doesn't spew oil |

Maybe they will have a session on bike maintenance as well. . . . . . Hope you guys have a blast. I am jealous, plus we have rain this whole weekend. |

Ok, day one down. I'm too tired to write this. Like Buell homecoming tired, but tired-er. The BMW s1000RR is an awesome bike, but I'm not used to it at all. The first few sessions were used to sort the bike out. By that time I was too mentally exhausted to get much more out of it. Once I have time to sleep and process all of this, it will be great. I have much to learn...much to learn. I feel like a padawan |

Day two was much better. I started to understand the bike and I was working it easier around the turns. Not struggling so much. I attribute this to both my body position and just understanding the bike a bit more. Good training exercises today and I definitely picked up the pace. I am actually less tired than I was on day one. It was incredible, but I'm glad it's over, I learned so much I can't even process it. |

Throughout the entire weekend Paul continued to promote a culture of safety.

Looks like all the passengers were scared off as well. |

The armistice was maintained for the entirety of the weekend. It was specified clearly and early! Plus we were too exhausted to move, let alone fornicate other people's property. |
