New suit for the track

August 23, 2017 William

All loaded up and ready for Buttonwillow Raceway with Let’s Ride Trackdays on Sunday. Just got my suit from Janman Leathers and it’s awesome.

Can’t wait to hit the track in a suit that was custom made just for me.

I’m gonna try my best to keep Juicy out of the dirt and get back to a full day at the track.

It was great to finally get the Gixxer out on the track

Unfortunately during the second session I missed a corner and dumped it in the dirt. The bike has a few scratches but nothing broken.

I did bump my head so they wouldn’t let me back out on the track, but I understand. I was really starting to enjoy the bike and look forward to getting back out there a soon as I can.

Thanks to Let’s Ride Trackdays for putting on another great day. I’m sorry for the delay I caused the other riders.

I’ve found that after riding Buttonwillow a few times now the counter clockwise off ramp a-section just did not jive with me. I think I’ll stick to clockwise for a while until I’m a little more familiar with the new bike.

Our home away from home

June 11, 2017 William

Our sleep set up for next weekend’s Father’s Day track day.

I’m surprised that we actually fit comfortably in the short bed thanks to the tent utilizing the tailgate area.

Ali will be sleeping in the cab, with her new air mattress designed for the truck. We’ll have to wait and see if she makes it the entire night in there all by herself.
