Track day pics!

[Trip]

looking good, standard upper body on the centerline thing that everyone tends to have. That's the hardest to learn not to do.

Looking pretty good out there man.

Just be careful about getting a little crossed up, it promotes handlebar pressure midturn... just drop the shoulder and do the armpit on the gas tank thing.

And consciously think about keeping your hands loose on the bars after turn-in. That's still the thing that takes the largest amount of my "10 dollars of attention"

I'd say the pressure on the bars is my biggest problem. There were a couple times I noticed I actually pulled myself back up onto the bike using my arms... then after the bike quit shaking and settled down, I said self, that was fucking stupid... quit it.

Yep, the closest I have ever come to a real bad get-off at the track was when I was really tired and was pulling myself back onto the bike with my arms, bad news.

I have done the same thing... up the hill between T7 and T8 at NH, at full throttle... got some nasty headshake... luckily I stayed on the gas and it worked itself out.

That's one of those times where you pit in and chill the fuck out for a couple minutes.
