Default Hello from Sin City

Hi All,
I have been here before but my last post was about a year ago... I was in SoCal and have recently moved to Vegas. I would like to point out that everything you have heard about riding in Vegas is true. No lane splitting, smooth-as-butter roads that are slick with oil and radiator fluid, and not an s-curve in sight. When I want to enjoy riding in Vegas, I have to go back to Ca.... or hit the track here, which I plan on doing next month.

Anyway - I just wanted to say hi and re-introduce myself.

Sounds boring. I like hills, rough roads that grip the tires, river crossings, a good hard packed fire road and trails. Oh and if its above 75 degrees, I hate it.

I have seen that track - it doesn't look friendly. The Las Vegas Speedway has about 8 differend tracks plus a great dragstrip. The motorcycle track days are on the Classic Course - an 8-turn clockwise oval. The track is pretty wide, smooth, has gently banked turns and runoff dirt and grass instead of gravel. That's where I'm riding.

Welcome back, Pat. Gotta agree with Deej on this one. Need to get some air-rides for my ZX9, though, to clear those logs.
