Free Track Day - 9/23/2008 12:13:43 PM    some guy #2   Posts: 492 Joined: 8/10/2006 Status: offline NESBA has an option to be in the intro group where I you get to ride around a track for free but only for half a day.  Has anybody ever gone to one of these or looked into it? Post #: 1

The morning has only 2 sessions, just to let you guys know before you start prepping your bikes and driving hours.  Thats not enough time to learn the track for an experienced track guy. _____________________________ I like to picture Jesus in a tuxedo T-shirt: It says "I want to be formal but, I''m here to party"!
