I can't afford a new sportbike right now so I bought used... :)



And does this count since there are bikes in the background... it is a mod to make my bike faster:

3lbs from my goal weight....

Finally got around to editing this video. There were a few guys from a filming company that will follow you around for half a track session for $20 and burn you a dvd at the track. Pretty nifty.

This was my second lap of the session from the trackday I did last week. So I'm not too hot and heavy, and yes I scrub my speed of pretty early into turn 1 and 7.

Yes I'm aware I post a lot of stuff of myself. :)

One cool thing was, one of the photographers snapped off 2000 pictures and took one B/W one which happened to be me. Yeah I'm getting this blown up to an 8x10.

Not to say I know a goddamn thing about motorcycle racing, but the Isle of Man TT video lead me to read up a bit on one Joey Dunlop. It's a testament to the sport that it attracted such a fantastic person, and gives me a lot of hope for things despite the prevalance of mad stuntaz these days. It might've been the alcohol, but I shed a couple tears reading about this particular fellow. Godspeed Joey.

How can they have no concept of death? Riding like that is not incredibly dangerous, he is not doing any high speed deaths. At worst, if he went down, he would have some cuts and scrapes, nothing big.


Did we watch the same video?

  • "We ride to die" is something of a catchphrase
  • When you are 5 or however old these kids are, you really dont have a concept of death. You know what it is, but you dont understand its finality and reality.
  • These kids are doing at least 20 with no gear other than a helmet. Ever hit the pavement "only" doing 20? It aint fun.
  • What are "high speed deaths"?

"When in doubt, pull in the clutch" does not work in this situation.

No, watch the spokes. Not enough clutch, just reved the engine with no go lever.

It's a good thing for that clown that he did keep the clutch in. Can you imagine the pain and suffering if he had popped it out while it was revving like that?

I think he said he got it off ebay. His Army CO is making him take it off since he rides it to work on base sometimee and I guess a few people have contacted the chain of command complaining about it being offense to them.
