hah, im all leathered up now baby. imma take it easy my first couple weeks back though, been off 2 wheels for 6 months, no need to stay off for another 6 cause of injury or property damage.

I'd love to, even have the leathers to do it. Problem is- even as far from civilization as I am- the roads are too densely populated. Too many driveways per mile.

Yeah, I am going to have full leathers before I am even close.

I don't have the "densely populated" prob you do... i have the "no corners" problem

all of the roads around my hometown are shitty and change surfaces in the middle of corners. and most have gravel. luckily in my college town they are pretty good.

Nope.

With me, I hit a knee... dragged a knee... and now just want to know where the ground is.

:lol: I'm used to that. You just have to run the road enough to know where he shit is so you can slow down before you hit it.

First day for me. Like others, I concentrated on it, then realized people were going faster than me without dragging. Too bad I sold the bike before I could really work on better position, etc.

I'm 5'7 and hit knee on my first track day. Freaked me out the first time, but as DLIT said, it's all I did after that. Tried to drag in every corner. I looked cool, but I was slow. :lol:

wow, seems like i have the right idea... learn to go fast w/o draggin the knee and THEN buy leathers.

not really, your body position is going to need lots of work now that you can get off the bike and not worry about scraping the shit out of your knees. When I watched you, you were making the bike do too much work by not getting off any.
