Catchy title, eh?<\/p>\n
I decided to head up to PMP (Pueblo Motorsports Park) to observe and help Nick (Inetesch) with the Sunset rider’s clinics he does up there. \u00a0He’s a very dynamic instructor, I was hoping to see if he had any new drills, that I might be able to use with the classes down here. \u00a0I got there later then \u00a0would have liked, but I had to get some things fixed on the trailer. \u00a0The shop opened up late that day so I was behind.<\/p>\n
Once I got there Nick told me to go get reacquainted with the track. \u00a0I hadn’t been on the track in over 3 years, they had also changed up the last turn. \u00a0 I really do love that layout, it’s not as wide as I remembered it being. \u00a0There was a couple of times, hard on the gas coming out of turns I was a lil worried about running out of track. \u00a0\ud83d\ude00 \u00a0 Turns out that they didn’t have enough students for Mark to ride the demos so he offered me up to ride them. \u00a0I loved it! \u00a0Riding a few of the turns backward was trippy, esp, the first time through, after that I had a great deal of fun with it.<\/p>\n
I had hoped to get some track time with Mark on Sunday, but the weather just hasn’t been the best for it. \u00a0I had to stop running demos once the track surface was wet…. wet pavement with cold race slicks is just a really bad idea. \u00a0I’ve gotten a bit wiser with age, no matter what anyone else says. \u00a0 Mark, Tammy and I camped at the track that night so we could catch up a bit. \u00a0I’ve missed them a great deal. \u00a0They are at the top of my favorite people list. \u00a0After a few margaritas, some chatting, it was off to get some sleep so we could ride in the am. \u00a0I was convinced the track was going to dry off by the morning. \u00a0ha.<\/p>\n
It rained more overnight, \u00a0there was standing water all over. \u00a0Again, race slicks… not going out there with water around. \u00a0Instead we headed off to breakfast, got to chat more about riding, racing, and the usual track rumors. \u00a0I learned a few new things about the trailer and that the batteries, will not last over night if it’s really cold out. \u00a0The bike slept in the trailer with me, mainly because it’s Pueblo. \u00a0I wouldn’t leave anything out that I wanted to keep. \u00a0It was a fun lil trip with the trailer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
