That may have been me. Lol. I did that a few times yesterday. Seemed like I was cruising around following some buddies and then Nate would go by so I had to put my head down and see what I could do. I did see one 1:33.9 while following him. It was hard cause he was putting passes on guys I wasn't going to do wearing an orange jersey. Pretty fast for a track day though.

For about 2 seconds until you fly past? Hope I didn't hold you up too bad, it was a blast out there. Watching Nate Kern throw monster wheelies as he rocketed past me was worth the price of admission.

Just came across the forum, thanks for the add. Anyone ever looking to get out in the NE side of Columbus let me know. Here's a shot of my precious!

I am going back to work after 2 years and 8 months of unemployment. Going to be driving vans for PTI shuttling train crews around the state. I start training Thursday. Going for a long ride tomorrow!

Right, but this was more of a Gavin question than a general motoamerica comment.

I haven’t been looking for a job for a while. My wife is a RN and is a Director of Nursing over a 75 bed facility. In other words she is making a lot of money.

Whats up with the R1 guys picking on us twin guys? @Jester_ wheelied my ass too this past weekend. Edit: Multiple times.

EDIT: FIXED I removed ABBA's "Dancing Queen" and "Take a Chance on Me" music. Should be good to go.

It was probably in French. Fuck the French.

CORE forum is gone, but some of the members reassembled here.

I've got plenty of video of the back of that Ducati...

As a resident of Woodsfield, I keep an eye on most of the good ones near me. 536 has reopened for now. 255 is still closed. 537 closed. 26 from Marietta to SR 800 is open with a couple of red lights at one lane closed construction areas. Same with 26 from Woodsfield to 148, and 26 from 148 to Bethesda. 260 is good to go from Rt7 in Matamoras to SR 78 afaik. Rode it last week from Matamoras to SR 145. Speaking of 145, it is open from Marietta to Beallsville with a little new pavement for a few miles. SR 339 is clear from Belpre to Caldwell. 821 is good from Marietta to Caldwell as well. It may still be closed North of Caldwell. I have not been over by Senecaville lake in a couple weeks and the last time I was the road down the West side of the Lake was closed in the loop. Hope this helps!

Got out Sunday to put a few miles on the Honda. Rode 800 Woodsfield to Barnesville then 147 to Belmont and picked up 149. Rode that all the way to Bellaire. 149 is a nice country ride, but honestly not overly twisty. There were a couple of spots but it was primarily fast sweeping turns and long straights. Grabbed a bite in Bellaire then wanted to hit 147 back to Belmont, but 147 is closed right out of Bellaire at the moment. Slabbed it down past Shadyside on Rt. 7 and hit Pipe Creek road, which was narrowish but very twisty and satisfying. About 7 or 8 miles later, I was on 147 headed back to Belmont. 147 was also nice and twisty and fun except for a couple of red light/one lane construction areas, and a run-in with a suicidal groundhog who bounced off my left heel, then my back tire. All in all a fairly good ride already, So for the trip back I came back through Barnesville and took 800 to 148/Captina Creek Rd. then up 26 north through New Castle (Awesome curves), then continued up 26 through Jerusalem back to Woodsfield. One more red light construction spot just a couple miles out of Woodsfield here also.

Best the only session I had a timer going was a 1:53. Thanks Dad @ChristopherHawkins for the photo work.

I was not the only one to donate for this PIRC day as I paid for the mid ohio cert that was registered but not used. @Jester_ contributed the most for this PIRC day along with myself. You don't have to offer a free track day, I started this to honor a debt to a friend that got me into this. But we certainly do want to keep getting new people out there just for the experience. So let me know and I will contribute some for next year for sure. Even if they don't take it to the level some of us have, I believe it is an eye opening experience that everyone that rides should do at least once.

Sony music entertainment. He used a copy righted song and now it's blocked

Well, over this past weekend we were finally able to deliver on our promise. Maybe not at mid Ohio but at PIRC. Hope ya had fun @GSX-Sam
