Sunday, bummed day…

Sunday, bummed day...

Well damn… had to replace the front tire after finding it flat this morning and now it looks like my radiator took a hit and sprung a leak. My weekend is officially done.

Had a great weekend though, the bike was feeling really good and I absolutely love this track.

Can’t wait to get back here and run some more laps. It may be a long drive to get here, but I’d definitely do it again.

Until next time…

It was a long drive, but we have finally reached the gates of Chuckwalla Valley Raceway. Looking forward to getting eveything set up, and start the weekend.

Here we go again!

Here we go again!

I’ll primed and ready for this weekend’s festivities with SoCal Track Days at Chuckwalla Valley Raceway. Can’t wait to get back out on the track, spending two days at this open track day. New track for me, zero sessions, ride as much as I want.

That’s it, I’m out!

That’s it, I’m out!

Well, at least for this year.  🙂  Another great day at the track, the temperature was perfect and for the first time in recent years I was able to enjoy the day without rain, cold or blistering hot temps.

I was so happy to see Dave Moss there as I’ve been wanted to get his hands on Juicy to work out the kinks I’ve had since the git go.  “Best 40 bucks you’ll spend on your bike”, so true. Dave is a genius at setting up bikes and after the first few session, he had the bike feeling so much better and I enjoyed the rest of the day working on the cornering tips he provided.

I’m quickly realizing that I need to work harder to get in better shape as these days really take their toll by the mid afternoon sessions.  Over winter I’m going to increasing my cardio program so next year I’ll have more endurance throughout the day.

Although I’m not planning any more track days for 2017, I can’t wait to get back out there.  I feel my progress has been slowed a bit as I adjust to the new bike, but with each new ride I feel more and more confident.  Looking forward to working harder in 2018 and maybe finally getting that knee on the ground.  🙂

Cali Photography was there to capture my moves, and Let’s Ride put on another great event. We agreed as a group that we need to check out Chuckwalla Valley Raceway next year, and I’m hoping we can all work it out to ride together.

That's it, I'm out!That's it, I'm out!That's it, I'm out!That's it, I'm out!That's it, I'm out!That's it, I'm out!

That’s it for me, and this will finish out the track pictures for the year.  😉 I need to get the street bikes out before the rains come and post some street action here on the site.  Kobe run anybody???

Whether you’re riding the street or the track, ride safe my friends.

Monday, fun day!

Monday, fun day!All packed up for another great day at Buttonwillow Raceway Park with Let’s Ride Track Days. My buddy with the motovan decided to take a snooze so I had to get my bike to the track on my own. No problem, with a long ramp, a tight grip on the bars, and a whole lot of prayers I got Juicy up into The Beast without breaking a sweat. Now that I know I can do this on my own, I see more track days in my future.

Here we go again, see you there.
