Damn Shame for those who don't like to listen. Glad that your Pops had fun. Can't wait to see the pics.

Your dad needs to adjust his foot some on that inside peg though in that pic.

Sweet times riding on a track.

Not this year - in the next year or two I might look into it, depending on my comfort level with it. After hearing about the accident in one of the groups that was there when dad was - the idea of hitting the track kind of makes me nervous!

Thanks for the tip - I'll pass it on to him. When he got back from track school, he was like a little kid! He had a ball!

Hey do not sweat it or be nervous about going to the track, it is not a race. You ride at your own pace, if you are the slowest or the fastest in your group it does not matter. Just ride your line and the faster riders will pass you as the opportunity presents itself.

Most organizers have rules of where and when you can pass and the beginner or level 1 rider, to the track, only on the straights or coming off the turns.

Once you go though you will be hooked I am sure.

I guarantee it would be something I get hooked on!!! I will do it for sure, someday. When I do, this will probably be where I go.......Atlantic Motorsport Park
