I was just givin mike shit... but if you ask me...
The fastest rides I been on have been with Mike. So I'd have to say that SOB is a wee bit of a bad infuence for me.

Same goes with the last ride I had with D1ngo... I've never made my tires look like I came out of a track day till a few mondays ago @ the CSW with D1ngo. That was an awesome ride.

But I went yesterday with a local I just met and we took it EZ... rode the Dragon in the rain with him but still got pulled over got off with a warning though.

I guess i am a rare breed as i like to push the envalope maybe a little to much sometimes. Im itching to go to the track so bad. so in knowing that wanna ride sometime? haha.

yeah I don't mean your putting other people in danger. even with gear man, I think any time you go down. your chances of hitting something solid goes up.

as for riding, my back tire is shot and I prob won't be replacing it for a bit, atleast till after I get back from the pikes peak hill climb race. but I wouldn't have a prob riding with you. I don't feel the push from other riders around me so I'll just ride my pace and call 911 for you if something happens. but I don't know cpr so your outta gas if you need much help till life flite gets there.


but don't let me change how you ride man. give it hell out there.

PP sounds like fun... have a good time there man... not that you need anyone to tell ya to

Get ready for some humble pie when you hit the track, Mike. Fast on the streets aint got shit on fast at the track... But I think you'll find out just how much faster you'll go there and be amazed at how much faster you can go there by watching the vets...

Just gotta afford it...
