As the title says. Headed out to Thunderhill last week; I had a good time, but I was slow. Nonetheless, I kept the thing upright and learned a lot. Going back this coming monday (28th) and plan on working on a few of the issues I had the first time out.

Anyone else do trackdays?

Naults has a track day here every year. I went last year, but didn't go this year. Last year I went through my moderately new rear tire in one day at the track. h:

I'm trying to go a couple times a month, or once a month at the very least. I went out with street tires last week, and they'll last about 1 more track day, and then they'll be done.

They're shedding rubber like no tomorrow...

Lucky! I've been wanting to go back for so long. Last time I did it, I still had an ex250. Great pic!

I assume you need full leathers to go? I don't have full leathers
