I loved running Battle trax whenever given the opportunity. Check out the riding in this video though. How fun would this be on a Buell?

Is that how fast Battle trax is? I am going to my first this weekend, and I was going to try it. I don't know now. I might not be ready for that. Wow...

Nope... well not unless you are really good. Battle trax is for all abilities and is one of the best ways to really enjoy your bike! Battletrax is also not nearly as difficult as the corse in that video.

Go do Battletrax and you will have a great time!

Pa.. don't miss a chance to do the BattleTrax, you can go as slow or fast as you are comfortable.

There will probably be people there ripping through like that on supermotards, but there will be plenty of others crawling through on cruisers, and lots of new riders on all sorts of bikes taking their time.

It's a great experience no matter what your riding level is.

I love the way the guy splits the cones on the last part of the track. What accuracy!

I've seen this track run by another bike... I can't find the video but the old guy was way faster.

You guys missed the greatest BattleTrax course ever, last Sunday in Waterloo!! Jeremy set up an outstanding course with plenty of challenges and one sweet sweeping curve!!

I hope it's not the last one we hold!! You'll never ride a larger BattleTrax course anywhere!!

This is a link to Craig's site, lots of photos from last week's event thanks to BattleMaster, Jeremy. http://ifmracing.com/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&p=516#516

Love that pic.
The concentration and the head positioning is great!


And look at your toes! Excellent! It took us some time, but we're gonna make you a track monster.

Thanks, Craig and Dave!!

Having great guys to ride with DOES make a difference!! More importantly, having great guys to ride with that are fun to hang out with, are just as excited about riding as I am and share riding / handling ideas is PRICELESS!!
