I have ridden with a bunch of idiots over the years. No respect for their machines or for the stupidity of other people. I have been lucky enough to ride fast on the track. You do not EVER need to ride like that on the street. The safety precautions on the track only make it so safe even for experienced riders. There are no such measures on the street. People still die under the best of conditions. Don't take unnecesary risks.
That certainly doesn't mean to not have fun, but it sure does mean don't be stupid.
This public safety message brought to you from graveyards all around the world.
Sorry couldn't help myself, got carried away.
Take care,
Robert
