Bob, it would be great to see you out there sometime this year. Glad to hear you picked up a sport bike. Connie14, I ride a triumph sprint St 100 so sport touring bikes are certainly welcome. Bandit, as far as pace. We have been know to run a pretty quick pace in the past but I would like to back it down some. Either way though, your pace is what you are comfortable with and we will not leave anyone alone. We wait for everyone to gather back up at each intersection we turn on. The best way to get more comfortable leaning that bike over is to ride with others that can show you a line to take.
