Track Day

This post is mostly a ton of pictures from when a group of us got together to ride around the supermoto track. Who knew riding in circles could be so enjoyable?! I was the slowest one there, but I did manage to scrape my kickstand on a turn, so I still felt pretty badass.

There’s a dirt area on this track too and after some laps on the track we decided to head over there and play around. The track itself is a bit tight for a larger bike and the dirt area was downright silly, especially with my lowering links in. I managed to lumber through the whole mess of whoops, table tops and berms without dumping it, but it was sketchy. I bottomed out on everything, crawling up the table top and plopping off the back while the smaller bikes popped up and over gracefully. Someone said it looked like a wildebeest among gazelles.

This experience and other bottoming out episodes convinced me I needed more ground clearance and I soon stumbled upon a dished Corbin seat and put the stock links back in.

They have tiny little bikes you can rent!
