August 30 @ 6:13 pmI survived my racetrack experience. My bike and I came home in the same condition we left. I was faster at the end of the day than I was at the beginning of the day. I learned much that will help me be a better, safer rider on the street. And I foresee additional track days in the budget for next riding season.
All in all, a great day! Unfortunately, there were approximately 8 accidents during the day’s riding sessions but no one was seriously injured. Statistically, it’s bound to happen with that many motorcycles exploring their limits on a racing track. Still safer than riding on the street…
They had a pro photographer there taking photos on the track throughout the day. They’ll be available in roughly a week, so perhaps I’ll have something to show you late next week.

Wow, eight accidents.
I suppose it depends on how many total bikers there were, lol.
Glad you go the most out of your experience, without losing any skin.

I’d estimate there were in excess of 100 motorcyclists riding in three different groups based on skill level. Each group was on the track at a different time, 20 minutes each hour. The accidents were anticipated. People tend to ride over their heads in situations like these and a wreck is usually the result. Fortunately, on a track there isn’t much to run into and in all of today’s cases, the result was a bruised ego and potentially expensive motorcycle repairs.

Did they have a professional repair guy there to provide estimates?? If not, that might be a great job to earn some extra money AND be at the track!

That sounded like fun Michael. Glad you came back in the same shape you left in!!
