here are some pics of the track pass fiasco! we got to the track about 30 minutes before staging for the track pass, then sat on the grid for an hour and a half waiting to get started, some cool bikes, and some real squids!!! we were supposed to get 3 laps, but of course some knucklehead crashed and took out a few other bikes on the first turn of lap 2, so we were escorted off the track... idiots screwed it up for the rest!! we got some pics of the bikes lining up, and Gloriann got some from the back seat; the guy on the Ninja next to us was a bit eager, and every panel of his bike had some damage or another, don't know if he was involved in the crash or not, but if i were a betting man... here i am hanging out near the Uly; the sea of bikes; a few pics of our lazy lap; candy stripes at "speed"; safety crew cleaning up the mess;

Sure wish I knew you were gonna be there. I was there on my bike. I went on Sat and Sun. I tried to get a ride on the demo Buells but there were more things going on than waiting to ride my own bike. We'll have to meet up next year though. |

The artist in me likes taking pics from the back of the bike. The whole world just looks different from there. I had a great time on these roads. |

I'm liking those Buell gloves. They had some like that a few years ago but must've been discontinued. Are those new? Nice pics too. Thanks for sharing. |
