Kind of crappy video, but a lap around Mid-Ohio.

Ariel view of Mid-Ohio about an hour away and Nelson Ledges, also an hour away.

No. I've never actually ridden on the track. I've been to a race there, that's it. I'm having a hard time coming up with the time & money to ride there.

yeah. Sad that it's the 2nd closest track to me... Hopefully in a couple years I'll get down there with some friends for a weekend or something.

Not my "home" track but my fav:



Here's how it looks on a supermoto with hilariously incorrect gearing. First session ever on a sumo on a big track.
