I can't wait to get to a track day. Just need to find the time. I'm glad it was only minor issues with the mishap.

man! what a shame! I hope you are feeling ok the bike got out relatively unscathed!

I liked the pics.. Laguna Seca is the closest track to me (I think closer than infineon) hope you get it ready for the next month!

congrats on winning the free track day!

It's one of those cheap helmets everyone avoids getting over the $500 ones. Yeah well I've gone down 3 times in this sooooo I think I'll stick with this

Though I oughta replace it, lol.

Congrats on the track day. Looks like you had a blast.
Sorry about the mis-hap, hope the JB weld works.
If the helmets hit the ground even once out of three falls, it would be better to replace it than push your luck.

Doooooooooood, that's fuggen awesome, though sorry to hear about the fall. Is turn 5 the quick left hander just after going under the bridge?

As yet, I know tracks only from videogames, but Seca has always been one of my all-time favourites... going through the Screw must be quite a rush.

Infineon must be another blast, especially the fast S before the final hairpin...

So walk us through a lap dude!

BTW if you learned to move on the bike, you'd be scraping knees no problems

Bike is fixed, ran it for about 10 minutes to make sure the JB Weld would hold and no mysterious leaks were found.
