    More Mulholland Stupidity

    Have fun and enjoy yourself. But if trying to ride or drive in an aggressive manner causes you to exceed your skill level extremely quickly, then learning the fundamentals of performance riding or driving shouldn't happen somewhere like that. More people who buy sports cars should do time...

    First track day. DO IT!!!!!

    Leather is leather. Buy a super cheap suit. It may look a bit less trim and such, but in the end it will still fit pretty well usually and most importantly....it'll get you out there! And just because it's a race track doesn't mean you need to go balls to the wall. Enjoy and explore your...

    Earth Pr0n - The Wanderlust Foreplay Thread

    Well, it's December of 2013 folks. Not sure about anyone else but I've had far too much time pass since I've had any good proper rides. Looking ahead to 2014, I've decided to start this thread. It's pretty simple really... Post pics of Earth Pr0n calibre destinations along with the name of...

    The Road to Racing As Travelled by Lone

    Thanks all. Really am touched by the kind words. You guys are the best! This is and has always been one of the best forums and gathering of souls I have ever found on the interwebs. Haha made me laugh. Thanks. And yeah it's looking like it's settled in a bit. Had to go with a...

    The Road to Racing As Travelled by Lone

    Hi! For those of you who don't know me, my name's Lone and I crash motorcycles. :D Here I am getting low dragging some elbow... But, as I discovered much to my chagrin, it turns out you can get around a corner a bit quicker if you stay on your bike. And so, I've decided to make...

    Need some decent MP3 tracks to excite the running

    Just download a bunch of Essential Mixes from Radio 1. You get a big cross-section across multiple sub-genres of electronic music and all of it is the DJ/producers best stuff typically since they are showcasing for the show.

    so i got pulled over for the first time tonight

    I've actually found the exact opposite to be more likely. The older cops tend to have a more sensible approach and are among some of the best people I've ever observed engaging society. Still, in some places there is institutionalized failure on the part of the authorities and a LOT to sort out...

    The Pace 2.0

    "Get on a racetrack." Yup. Lol once you find your REAL pace you're not going to want to find it on the street. You learn what speed really is as you work on your riding and chase all the guys that are properly quick. There's no attitudes or egos, only guys trying to figure out why they're...

    Well, that's certainly one way to do it...

    Pretty sure this guy is getting sorted to go ride 30,000 miles in 20 days or something stupendous. Lol they don't mess around. Haha it'd be way too tough to move around on that thing with all the stuff in the way. But yeah that Vegas FJR was sweet beans.

    Track Day On Everyday Tires

    For the tires: Grip levels will be adequate for what you're going to be doing. The issue will arise with tire temperatures. Depending on the layout of the track, how hard you push the tires, and track conditions, you may find the tires beginning to overheat. If this happens they start to get...

    Well.....it finally happened....

    Lol clovers... The sequence of events: --was on the inside line going into the corner --overshot my brake marker --reached for the brakes --front end dived down but soon it started to feel like a jackhammer as it slid/gripped/slid as I got heavier on the brakes --eased off and got back on the...

    Well.....it finally happened....

    I get more freaked out going around corners (not nearly at those speeds) on my road-race-style bicycle than I do crashing motorcycles haha. That's pretty mental at your speeds on those tires. Haha crazy stuff. And your feet are locked into the pedals too just for extra seat-grabbing muscular...

    Well.....it finally happened....

    Lol, you guys are the best. Seriously. This is such a great community here. First off Kenny the pleasure was all mine, haha you are something spectacular I'll tell you that much. Brilliant stuff. We will undoubtedly ride again one day. I'm not done with North America yet. And Garrett, with...

    Well.....it finally happened....

    Haha thanks all! Good tip Cliff! But I seem to prefer to even out the wear and tear by sliding around some more on the opposite side... :( Haha :BLAA:

    Well.....it finally happened....

    Shhh......... ........she's sleeping. Lol. Definitely got under my skin especially after one of my last times out being the high-speed faceplant last July. But made up my mind to just shut everything out and grind it out. Starting hitting really consistent lines and my inputs smoothed...

    Well.....it finally happened....

    No, I didn't finally crash... ...I finally got pictures of the crash happening! Haha Only Jtarkany from on here has had the privilege of witnessing this spectacle firsthand. LOL! A bit of rustiness, sloppiness, and a dash of over-confidence all led to my not being able to settle the...
