You had a few nice drifts right before the crash.

Looks fun.

It's insanely fun. All the fun you have at track days, multiply that by 100. There is no fear to do something retarded or make a stupid pass on these. You can wreck the snot out of them and pick it up and do it again with only minimal cosmetic scratches. Getting hurt is not real common in a wreck. You can run 120% every lap. They are so much cheaper than track days and big bikes. Speeds are fast for these little bikes. My only negative is I don't get to do it enough.

Was the big guy riding a pink/purple one? And tell me that wasnt a basket on the front!

Love the neons tho, very classy. Looks like a total blast.

That's Kelly, he works with me. Yeah that's a basket on his bike. It was originally Zee's fiddy and he bought it from her and left it that way. We use his basket to pick up the parts we lose off the bikes.
