    I highly recommend that if you want tons of track time to go for the Sunday as well
    Not too many registrations as it's bound to be a bit cooler, but if numbers allow we will run only 2 groups, or even open track

    the weather for tomorrow looks dry - and with the number of registrants it seems like it will be an open day - meaning ride all you can.

    Ah, I wish I could have joined you. Now please tell me, what's going on in this pic? My guess would be #13 was overwhelmed with the F4i's very slow turn-in speed, and thus had to get on the brakes hard mid-turn.

    You pretty much nail that one.. Because beginner and intermediate were mixed you had to be carefull passing.


    Praying AFTER didn't help

    Nice pics. Did you get any more? I'd like to see them if you wouldn't mind posting them up somewhere. My husband and I were there yesterday. We had a great time. The weather couldn't have been better. It was a great way to start the season

    Couldn't agree more! I had a great day. Lots of guys riding far to agressive!!! Some guys seem to forget the portion of the riders meeting where they tell us it's not a race! If you get behind a slower rider, take your sweet a** time and pass safely. Heres an example of how being patient would have been wise. I wonder how big his trophy was??????? This was in the fast group as well.

    In that case, all bets are off

    I didn't witness too much agression in the fast group from my perspective.

    I'm pretty sure that was not the hot shoe group, pretty much every pass made in hot shoe was clean, I should know I was the slowest one running and most frequently passed. Too many people decided to run in the intermediate group, people that could have been running a group up but instead decided to cherry pick.
