Let's talk lines....
I know this is vague or general and curves are different, but generally what type of line do you take for a given curve? Perhaps you have pics of you in said curve? Video in said curve?
I was thinking about the guys I ride with, we all ride drastically different in the curves, but with the exception of one rider are all about the same pace. Not sure I'm making sense |

Depends on the curve and a lot of other variables.

I ride outside the curve to the apex and then back to the outside again...
left hand corner, start to the right of the lane come to the left at the apex and drift back to the right of the lane. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gYhM2k9ZI80 |

Of course, Bro! I have it set up to mount on my tail so you can just use my bike if you want or I'll bring the extra sticky pads with me if you are uncomfortable with using my bike.

Same here until I see gravel, then I tend to stay in either the inner or outer cage track throughout the next few turns.

Oh yea, for sure! One good thing about around here, there isn't a lot of gravel on the roads like back in Mi because they don't line the sides of the roads with it. |
