coincidentally, i'll be giving out "how to speak mandarin chinese" at the next nelson date in may. .....lol

i'll call him. is he expecting the call, or should i tell him who i got the number from?

saved for later. i'll only charge $15,000 per picture.

who was your coach, btw?

if you didn't the last time around, I would suggest asking for individual help and grab one of the floating coaches to have them follow you around. the wet track turned the focus from "how to work on technique and going more quickly around the track" to "how to work on smoothness and not crashing newbs". I personally was looking back every 5-10 seconds, right before corner entry and right after my corner exit. to get a idea of how everyone was doing and how the pace was... but I had a small group. When I'm better at it, I'll start looking back during the corner to watch peoples' corner entry as well, but that's something I have to work on.

i believe that is the case.

did your group get to do the "leap frog" part of the instruction? that is normally when all the "try this, try that" suggestions come in from the coaches. I think due to the shortened sessions, the schedule got all messed up. for the group I helped with, I offered advice to the one(s) that I saw were struggling, and answered questions anyone else had (including those from other groups). Actually, ray (the older gent on the blue SV) was tailing all the groups and told the one kid in my group that he would be bumping to a faster group, which is something I had been meaning to do after lunch. If anyone feels like they are not getting individual attention, please ask for help. Any of the coaches are glad to help, and there are certain coaches that are there solely to float between groups to watch students from perspectives the group leaders can't see. But otherwise, most of the individual critiquing will come when you screw up visibly and during the leap frog sessions.

pauly's a bit further away in ravenna but I think he's worth the trip. i hear good things about MPH too, though.

somehow, ccw grattan creeps me out more than the normal clockwise orientation. but it's damn fun either way.

we're going to have to kill it with fire.

it sounds amazing! i'm going to try to make at least one ride out with the scooter.

crap, i think that a nelson or beaver weekend. if it is, i won't be able to make it.

check the stt forum and see if anyone is heading up from cbus.

don't hesitate to car pool with jarvis, he's one cool dude. except for his squid bike, that is. lolsauce i think the deadline for this discount day is tomorrow or something like that, so BAMP

re: pictures this is from marty's (the photog) thread at the motoseries forum. I have some minor changes for the 2011 racing season that I wanted to posted up for everyone to see. CD / DVD Pre-Order Discount If you pre-order and CD or DVD with all the weekend images (ie: contacting me before I leave the track on Sunday.) I will offer a 25% discount. So here is a comparison on the prices: low res will be $26 Vs $35 medium res will be $38 Vs $50 high res will be $56 Vs $75 full res will be $75 Vs $100 Uploading of images As you may imagine, this is the most time-consuming aspect of the entire process. So what I will do is post up about 5 to 10 shots from the weekend and if you are interested in order individual files or prints, I will then upload all the shots of you or your team for the endurance teams, from that weekend. This is to save my sanity and to keep the better half from throwing me out of the house.

I am always awake.

I don't speak "man-pussy". Youre gonna have to translate it into something I can understand. All I see is, "wahhh I won't ride at nelson cause my labias are tender"

I can help honda guys as well. Take it from me, if I can do it, you can too without much effort. Itll take a couple minutes

trmn8tr and i are going to arrive tomorrow morning. see y'all then.

sold to me. hurray. i've missed having a sig.

we'll put you hopeless masochists into Team Edward (288) and Team Jacob (2) shirts. then we'll hand you knives so you'll clean up the gene pool a bit.

he took the cave part pretty literally, huh i'm jealous.

he said he didn't have theft coverage. very sorry to hear about your loss. I hope the fuckers are caught and skinned via butter knife.

his "skeered of nelson" man-pussy will never be good enough for me, i think, is what he's saying.
