for the track lovers...

If you don't want to crash, just ride in the beginner group and don't crash. Simple as that.

If you want to get better and faster, ride harder. Your chances of crashing increase. Risk vs. reward.

And yes there are uncontrollables... Shit happens, but the likelihood is FAR less on the track.

Riding on the track and learning the limits of yourself and your machine is an invaluable experience. It will make you a better rider in any and all situations and put everything in perspective. Just do it.

The only thing is.... right before you go to the track, look in your wallet. That's the most money you'll ever have again.
