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.
