My favorite vid of you is the one taken by someone else as you go through gravity and they go "WOW!" I can't seem to find it though.

its not the speed that bothers me, i just dont know that road good enough to ride it that hard

Well,I haven't had those balls for going on 20 years! He's got a lot of talent that's for sure! Even so,I agree with T-rock that there's no way I'm crossing the double yellow in a blind corner,that's just asking for it,and exactly what I'm afraid of going to the Gap. I really don't want to be coming the other way while he's trying to improve his "lap time". If it's necessary to risk a head-on collision to keep up....I'll see you at the end.

Cross the double yellow...doesn't matter how much talent or ability you have.

FAIL

It's called riding like an asshole and being a moron who ruins it for everyone else.

I didn't see one inadvertant double yellow cross.

Everytime the bike was in the "wrong lane" it was setting up for the next turn, or taking a short-cut with plenty of forward visability. :idk:

Sick video.

I like to push myself on the track but to pull that off on real road takes a special kind of balls. :pat:

I don't ride anymore, but this video was made long before I started racing. I didn't street ride much after I began racing.

Yes.

And dare I ask how many runs did not go quite as 'well' as this one? :lol:
I have crashed 3 times at the gap if I remember correctly. I hit an antifreeze spill once, tucked the front end once, and highsided once. No major injuries in any of those crashes.

You are correct that there are no blind or otherwise dangerous line choices in this video. Interaction with oncoming traffic was not a factor.

Well,if you say so but I couldn't see,so I'm not sure how he could have. Besides,another bike coming at 100 mph would make the impact a split second affair. If nothing else you could potentially freak some poor guy (me for instance) the fuck out and cause him to crash. But again,he has balls and talent and for that I can't help but respect him!
