So....buttonwillow was awesome....except for the fact that my buddy laid his Aprilia Mille down  Can we say throttle control  We were laughing about it on the way home...then the funniest thing happened....about a mile from his house...my bike decided to fall off the trailer so the new bar-ends, rear-set on the left side, and swing arm spool just went to shit...  I friggin have no luck with trailers I guess....and I was looking at an enclosed...but I am just going to look for a damn truck...lol

Guess Paul isn't trying to sell the Mille any longer after that... Price didn't mention anything to me about Paul going down. Did you make it up to Pahrump this weekend as well?

yea that's Tomaz's bike...I guess he didn't realize that it was cracked til he got there that morning... No...I was supposed to be backup for Pahrump...but I am couldn't make it...wife was working...and my son ended up with a double ear infection. Price didn't know because he was working the afternoon shift... It was Paul's and mine last session because we wanted to take off early (4 P.M). He said he was beat but he would come out for a few laps to video me...I told him not to worry about it but he insisted. We were about 3 laps in and he was coming onto the straight after the chicanes....and was going to pass someone.... Needless to say...he ended up on his ass  I watched the whole thing...and instead of patting the ground to make sure he was done moving...he tried to get up and cart wheeled a couple of times I fixed on him but then had to look away but still went straight off the track...kept mine up right and then when I came to a stop I hopped off and made sure he was alright...needless to say...he wasn't too happy  He walked away with some bruising to his body and his ego. His blame....."the throttle control wasn't working" I guess he needs to go back and re-read "a twist of the wrist"
