Got Invited To A Track Day

At the new High Plains Raceway, east of Denver http://www.highplainsraceway.com/track.html. All day Monday. I could go, but I'm not.

I haven't been on a track since 1984. I would probably be the oldest guy there, and I would definitely have the oldest bike. But the main reason is, my friend said "After you ride this track, you won't want to ride Lookout Mountain."

I like Lookout Mt. The max speed on most curves is under 50 MPH. That gives me some time to think through the corners. I don't believe my old brain can process me moving at triple digits. Actually, I probably couldn't process everyone passing me at triple digits. I could go as a spectator, but then I'd probably be pissed that I didn't bring my bike. Maybe next time.
