All in all had a prety good day on the lightning course at NJMP. Basically I got home from the rally sunday and was out the door an hr or 2 later heading down to the track. met up with my friend dave then met up with fred and his bro for dinner.
Mon morning I got an early jump to get my bike teched, since I hadnt ridden it in a year I wanted some extra time in case there was any issue. Got registered and teched no problem ![]() I was put into the fast beginner/slow intermediate group, which i figured was good since I was going ot be realy rusty. So first session out I am on the warm up lap, I make it to about turn 5 and its redflagged (sadly this was going to0 be the theme of the day ![]() Second session I figured I would roll with the slower group and work on what I learned, a friend who is also a coach with absolute now gigged me on my body position, but that was just a minor tweak. Sadly that sesion too was ended by a redflag. 3rd session we get a little talking to by the club owner just to go out and ride otherwise we would have another riders meeting ![]() So we brak for lunch and next session out after lunch it all just clicks and I am riding realy well and now find some people to pass. Now this track is geared for liter bikes which was driving me nuts. Guys would pass me on the front straight then park it in turn one ![]() ![]() So we get delayed a bit because there was a second guy who had to go to the hospital and we had to wait for a bus to come back so I head out for mty last session. I luck out the guy in front of me on the grid didnt disconnect his kickstand kill switch since he tried to go out with the stand down, he would have made a few turns before he crashed so good thing he saw it. So we get out and am riding realy well and turn a bunch of good laps untill my righ tknee tells me its time to call it a day. ![]() So all in all it was nice to get out and ride in anger for a while and am def looking forward to a new track bike for next year. |
