i went to the track last weekend, practice saturday, and sunday i raced. was a longstanding goal of mine so very glad i got out there. above is me at supermoto practice, alone, snapping myself. i was a little stressed here (pre-first ride, never been at this track etc.)
you can see my bike below, with my numbers for the eastern supermoto racing association. i raced in two classes, and got a little plaque for the drz class just for entering (there were only two people that road that class, basically a street supermoto). in races, i let the pack go ahead the first couple races so i could get a feel for what racing was like. but in the 4th and last race, i actually came in 5th out of 7 people riding the track. i couldn't believe that i wasn't last. that was enough encouragement - i can't wait to go again. i hope to convince someone else to come along, going alone kinda sucks.
