I might be in for this. Have to see what’s going on as we get closer to the date.

I had a blast on Monday guys. Thanks for organizing this Jacob and encouraging me to take my skirt off to ask for the evaluation. It was great to meet some new guys and catch up with others I know. I need to start working a side job in the summer so I can afford to do this track thing more often.

Bike loaded up and pretty much all set to leave in about an hour after I run to town for dinner with my daughter. Looking forward to beating on the bike tomorrow.

Glad to hear you’re good. Sorry about the bike.

That sucks. Are you okay, though?

The lady said they have to give you the bump essentially. She asked if I had ridden before with Mid O in intermediate. I told her no but I had ridden there last year in novice. She said that she was going to sign me up for novice but to speak with the CR about the bump.

Just signed up. I’ll be staying in my truck Sunday night. If you need someone to share cost of a garage I can do that or I have a canopy I can use. Tried to sign up for intermediate as Todd mentioned. They would not let me do it. So novice it is. Bike is almost completely ready, I just need to swap out the tail section and remove my plate. Took it for a quick rip into town all geared up. The back protector is going to take some time to get used to.

Started prepping the bike for Mid O. Swapped out roadsmart 3s (removing the rear tire was the worst) for Q3s. Changed coolant out and wired the oil filter. Working on swapping plastic. Can’t wait for Monday.

Jim I want this. PM me your number?

Thanks for the info

I’m trying to call to register but no answer at this point. I plan to be there. Working on prepping my bike now.

Somebody help @what out please

I’m planning on being there 1 of those days.

Thanks

I’m not going to make it. I went last year on a questionable day and only got 1 session in after lunch. Not looking to repeat that. I’m going to shoot for next week possibly.

Have you heard any rumors about Wayne being closed in the near future for drilling or something of that nature? Got some friends of mine that keep saying something about it.

Awesome thanks for the info.

Got out for a short 150 mile loop this morning with my youngest daughter Ally. We had a good time.

I only rode there once and was not promoted. It started raining before they could follow us. Thanks for the vote of confidence though.

21 open spots in Novice as of this morning. I’m hesitant to sign up because of the weather.

Math

Welcome Ed. I’m a teacher as well.

Luke it was nice meeting you and your family today. Thanks for leading me around some different roads other than my normal go to stuff. Gary it was nice to see you again and get to know you a little better. Thanks for making sure I didn’t get lost or end up in a ditch. B-Mac I wish I would have been running video to catch your dance moves. Would have been internet gold to have video of you walking like an Egyptian on your bike. All in all great day. Put down close to 500 miles and got off with a warning from the Columbiana Sheriff, when I definitely deserved a ticket.

This was my feeling after a couple hours on it. I rode it for a good distance my first trip to the gap. The reduced speed of 45mph didn’t bother me on the parkway. It was almost another world up there. I enjoyed it and I hope you do as well. I was typically 5 over maybe 10 at times.

Man I was going to wait until closer to the actual date to weather watch but with all the activity from this thread I’m starting to wonder if I should just commit to it now.
