Training

[cockercas]

I did a trackday and stopped riding on the road. You just cant match dropping into a corner with your knee scraping the floor and still be above 100mph or braking hard enough that the rear comes off the tarmac.

[soll]

but i know i can do more and better, would rather do it on a track than the road, as roads are covered in crap and crap riders and drivers

 

Please just take it easy out on the roads.. We all know that feeling of wanting to push the bike that bit more, get that bit more thrill but.. You never know when that tractors going to pull out, when that animal will run from the hedge row under your front wheel.. etc..

On a track the ambulance can be with you in minutes, if less. There are people there who's only job is to pick you up if you go skidding over the kitty litter.. Not so much on country roads..

This wasn't meant to sound condescending at all, I know it's difficult to get emotion over with typing but I really would hate to see another thread appear to say we've lost one of our numbers again..

 

i know, and i agree , I ride as safe as i can with the experience i have..... track day will give me more experience and help me ride safer etc.
