Popped my Track-Cherry!

[kat_kitten]

well, mini-bike track anyway.

Seriously, stupidly fun! The bikes were smaller than I thought they were going to be (125s - 150s), but they were still challenging, considering the track.

It was hard for me to get over the whole idea of riding on a track (kinda have a slight apprehension when it comes to the idea)... and I didn't go balls-deep for my first few runs. Actually, I pretty much stayed in 3rd gear (lame, I know.. whatever).
But, after about an hour or so, I was in 4th and 5th.

Seems I oopsied and dragged a toe through the corner on the top left of the map... but, nothing in the way of a knee.

Still gotta work on scootching my bum off the seat and all that jazz... but I got some good pointers when I was out there.

$45CAD/night every Wednesday for about 4 hours... they supply gear and bike. Not a bad deal at all! I'll certainly be going back.

I'm still smiling like a mo-fo this morning! ('cept for the bruises on my, uhm, naughty-region from the less-than-comfortable seat)

I'm thinking he wanted pictures of the bruises, not the leathers.

and I didn't go balls-deep for my first few runs.

hahaha that made me laugh, I'll have to check that out next time I'm in Calgary, I dunno if edmonton has something like that and I'm just way to lazy to look it up.

I want to see a picture of you in leathers anyway.

dude. srsly, come out! fun times =)

http://www.stratotech.ca/ = edmonton's AMRA track... and some of our locals have gone up there to play.

[thetable]

Wow, that is a smoking deal.

There is a track day coming up locally for me at the end of the month, for $150 (real money) for the day, and they supply nothing. If I can get the front brakes and some safety wire squared away by then, I'll be there on the Kat. Hell, that's one of the main reasons I kept her.

Hey! We'll be the judge of that!
Sounds like a blast. Take the camera next time.

KK... popped cherry.... leathers... ummm, I'm good for the day now!!




I also agree with Tom. Let US be the judge on whether the leathers were flattering or not.

Yeah, and in order to do this accurately we'll need to see images from all angles to give our best possible critique. Just looking out for you KK

[kat_kitten]

lol

they were the best leathers, evar! held together with duct tape.. the zippers didn't work properly (i couldn't unzip the legs... fun to get on and off.... thankfully i had a friend there to hold me up lol)
