A shot of the front tire. Nice bend on the lip. Apparently there is a hole at the end of the candy stripe on the outside of T8 as you exit. I hit that at full throttle still in a bit of a lean. As the bent portion is only on the right side of the wheel. It also bent the rear wheel as well,...

Le sigh!

Round 4 came around like alll others. Arrived Friday evening to the track and set up and got settled in. Hanging out bbqing and having a few beers with other racers. Mosquitos were killing me, so I slept in the truck. Not paying for a hotel room is a good way to offset gas and travel costs.

Saturday practice went well, breaking in...

Damn, been too long. Lots happened since the beginning of the year.

Got back to work then took a month off to visit family in Texas. Drove down in the truck, and went to some campout weekends. All in all, it was fun getting out on the road and seeing the countryside.

When I came back, I went to a trackday at Sears Point, to...

Went to see the movie "Rambo" with little to no expectation. and I gotta say, that was really good.

John fucking Rambo. hahahahaha

1st trackday of the season is 1 week out. Loads to work on, on the track. The bike is almost set. need to finish up some last minute details this weekend.

Looking forward to some fun on the track and prepwork for the race in 2 1/2 weeks.

been slackin on this thing.

Last night was fun times at Benders. Way too much whisky, way too much beer. was wondering where my motorcycle was this morning, and found out it's parked in the bar. perfect. Now, to find out who got me home.

fucking hangovers.

spent xmas in Thailand as a last minute thing. Met some friends who live in Seoul, S. Korea. What a good idea. No annoying xmas carols and constant need to show the "xmas spirit" just booze, beer, and loads of lounging around in weather that was better than what I could expect. sunny and warm.

spent 10 days drinking. a few nites in bangkok as...
