Had a good time at MotoAmerica this weekend. Here's some shots from the previous weekend How's my BP? Thank you @Jester_ for letting me ride the 675 saturday. I think I need to get another supersport again.

I covered about 1400 miles total. Saturday was about 480 miles of relentless curves. That might be the best day I've had on 2 wheels. WV has so many amazing motorcycle roads. Many are in areas with little population which means traffic is light and LEOs are basically non-existent. There's a great mix of tight/technical & fast/flowing. btw, I'm loving the Ninja 400. It doesn't have quite the pure sportbike capability of my old 1125R or CBR600RR...but it's not as far off as you might think. Riding it is all about momentum. Luckily I can chuck it into corners at speeds I couldn't on the VFR1200. It only has 44 rwhp, but the gearing is spot on & I can use 100% of what's there. Passing cars was never a problem. The only times I I felt limited by power was on corner exit in a few sections where the pace got particularly hot. I had to get a little "creative" to keep that Hyperstrada from waking away on corner exit. Pound for pound it might be the most fun motorcycle I've owned 👍

I have not done this myself. Everyone I ever talked to that did, got in on the standby first try. It's worth a shot.

Nice meeting you as well! Racing was great and hope your ride home was good as well! Welcome to the boards!

It was good to meet Brian, Dereck, Greg, Branden and Frank at the PIRC today. The racing was fantastic.

It will be closer to a full day that half a day. 5-6 sessions would be my guess. I’ll know more tomorrow.

Week 3. Down another 2.8 lbs this week. Total loss 12lbs. On to week 4. This next week will be a short one. Will weigh in on Friday morning because me and the Wifey are headed to Atlantic City for the weekend. Will also be considered my first cheat days/weekend.

According to the Solomon Curve, drivers traveling 5 mph (8 km/h) above the average speed of traffic are statistically the least likely to be involved in a crash while crash risk increases dramatically when traveling below the average speed. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solomon_curve
