Hey guys just thought I would share my first ever experience on the track on a motorcycle. Had a great time and defiantly want to get back out there. Just had a little mishap that I could have done with out but hey we live and we learn.

yeah sorry should have mentioned that in the original post. I was not holding on to the bike when she rolled. I had a nice long slide with a short roll of my own once getting into the grass but I walked away without a scratch and got back on the track the next day after fixing her back up during day one.

SO WHAT WENT WRONG THERE??

Looked like you were out side the main line... Were you on the brakes still?

VIR North Course turn 1. That corner gets lots of experienced riders. Initial turn is slow and easy then a few feet in it gets much tighter real fast. It's easy to over cook it.

Glad your ok!

I would feel its safe to say I was still on the brakes going into it. I cant say 100% that i was because it wasn't really what was on my mind, I got focused on trying to make it through the turn.
