Short of the Fastrax day at BeaveRun last year where it poured all day, and yesterday, today was the worst trackday weather I've ever experienced. It was 5 degrees warmer per the thermometer in my car (44 degrees), it wasn't as windy, it didn't snow, but other than that, the weather was very similar to yesterday. Once again, the gippy surface at BeaveRun came up huge and we rode pretty hard anyway. It was good to meet and ride with Rookie (Matt). Hope to ride with you again soon! My buddy Kenny got the bump to A (no surprise) and Pat was flying!!!

It was great to meet you too (Matt). You buddy was hauling a$$ for sure.
I appreciated the offer for help setting up, it must have been comical to watch! 25mph wind gusts and snow...I couldn't feel my fingers or toes. At one point I set the bikes kick stand on my toe and didn't know it till I went to walk away! lol
I look forward to running a bunch more this summer.
Any video posted from you guys? There were more "Hero"s than the a comic book convention!

I followed him for a few laps at the start of the first session and then passed him before he could get too comfy with the track and his new Buell. I laughed to myself when I went passed him and thought "that will be the last time that happens". Unfortunately, I was right... Setting up for a trackday while it's snowing...gotta love it! Were you asking yourself "what the hell am I doing here?". I know I was! I busted the mount for my Hero so I didn't shoot any vid. Pat shot some with his Hero and Kenny had the HD running so I'm sure they'll post up some vid soon.

Matt beat me too it on the video post,it was nice meeting Rookie and Jeff also.I do have some video of you Jeff .This was the first day for Nesba for me and all but the weather was great.Beaver does have a lot of grip for being this cold and I think the second session the track was little wet. Jeff, this is you later in the video.I have some more but need to clean up the video.This one is set to music though. http://vimeo.com/11067132
