Just keep shooting. I dunno how many motorcycle shots I've taken, but it's in the 10's of thousands, and I still learn new things all the time. Oh, and prepare to be poor because good lenses are expensive, and you WILL want one ... or two or three.

yup... sorry rae... but you've just got addicted to a hobby that's ALMOST as expensive as riding.

One thing you can look into though... is RENTING lenses for your track day... rent a 400mm L lens for the weekend... the onlything is then your limited by the XT...

For some reason the photogs always quit before everyone gets really warmed up...

Very nice. Only if I was single and living in Florida...

Rae, that looks nice and smooth. Sounds like you've been going strong since Little Tally. The bike looks awesome too.

Hahaha...I think its a safe bet Photography is probably MORE Expensive than Track days.

I miss you guys, looks like a BLAST. I'm glad you had fun, and you're looking even better than before.

I'll have to find a ride and tear it up the next time Im in the states. And don't count on me getting any better while I'm out here, I'll be lucky to just be able to ride.
