We departed, Carolina in her car, and me on her Ducati following. (Hey, the view is better if I'm behind her. )

The neighborhood is twisty, so I only got a knee down once or twice (KIDDING!). We finally made it out to the interstate and began the drone south to Harris Hill. We passed the exit, made a stop for gas and breakfast, and then on to the track we went.

Got to the track and I got out of my leathers. Hung out with Moira and a bunch of track riders, I helped provide Subway lunch to everyone while Carolina and I both chased two crazy little girls, and ate some lunch ourselves.

It was time to go. I put the leathers back on, sweating my ass off (Thanks Texas ) and took off for Austin. Carolina followed me this time since I wanted to flog the Duc a little bit. We got back, made dinner, and called it a day.

Normalcy returned.

And as always... you rode more slab than twisties.
