As the riding season ends for some... - Page 2

TYEster · 11-08-2009, 10:15 AM

Since I started back at the track this year, I'd say I progressed in everything.

Next years goals - IF I retain my ZX10, to try and hit faster lap times.

IF I move on to a motard and ditch the ZX, my goal will be to work on ALL of that noise.

My next year goals.... actually get to ride some, and possibly, just possibly, actually meet some of you fuckers.
Depending of course on when I get home, and when all the shindiggitys go on.

with a more upright riding position on the SV, I need to re-learn throttle/clutching technique for slow speed stuff

On my ride today went down a road I kind of know, but wasn't comfortable at all. I need to ride it more but also need to learn to read the road better.

to get into the 9s

I've honestly progressed to where I'm comfortable on the streets.

I want to get a knee down next year, but I would prefer it on the track.

Time and money will tell.

I suppose I don't belong in this one since riding season really doesn't end here, but I feel compelled to mention that I'm relearning how to handle a sportbike and already have 1000+ miles on the new Buell.
Let's see if I can manage 2k before spring.

No real goals other than to keep finding cool roads to ride...to continue to keep from getting creamed by any crazy cagers or wandering deer and to not end up off the road unless it's planned.

I got over 7 in my first season. Barely got 3 this year between the flood, new pup, and all the military goings on.
It should really start waking up in the next few hundred miles man.
3rd gear power wheelies FTW!
