    Thanks.....the impatient one
    Shit you have to be way cool to ride with that lot
    Nah seriously most of us are boringly at work. There will possibly a few at the track on the weekend.
    If I had of known yesterday morn, I would have given you a yell for a ride. Sadly it was the last of my free Mon- Wednes as my roster has changed & I have picked up more days, the trade off for getting 2 weekends of a month now.
    But if you can handle riding with a nana, I'll pm you when I'm able to go out next.

    Someone who rides safer than safe... too slow, like they're scared of doing anything that would approach the speed limit etc.

    Common with riders of less experience when they ride in their first strong wind, or rain etc.

    hmmmm well im not sure what id be. When we rode up north (me and 5 harleys) we sat on 120.... rain I def slow down.... I usually look at the corner signs, above 30 and add 20 or so....so a 75 corner ill take at 100 without slowing before if permitting. Sweepers I can see through Ill throttle hard out of but if I cant see round (hills etc) Ill slow down till I can see where im heading. I sux downhill cornering but havent been passed by a cager yet. On desert road I had her to 160 but it was dead straight and actually nearly pooped my pants when I looked down. Trouble with my new triumph is you pick up 20 30 ks without even noticing. Dad says you lose your lic here real quick for speeding and fast on straights is Boring anyways. Anyone can do that. So id prob alone def keep it 20 or so to speed limit. So am I a Nana?

    By the way....up north the 18 wheeler trucks haul ass. I had to do 150 up hill to pass one in a passing bay! They have warnings up there for corners that say 95! Most trucks will run averaging 120........

    You sound like you would be ahead of me, but hey thats usual we are all fairly cruisy here and love the riding rather than the speed, that what the track is for

    I agree. Coming off def made me realize the damage that can be done. I was very lucky and going 30. Was more a stop and drop but im still licking the wounds. Plus you see more, at times I wished the harleys would slow down especially round the coastal areas. Speed isnt my thing but im not going to lie I love that feeling when you tuck down turn the throttle and feel the pull
