Dang, Butch - slow down. I was excited about the moto, as I am finally getting the hang of the little yamaha. What Butch doesnt realize, is that some of the friends I ride with will wear you down if you dont give a little back. That, and the fact that I was able to actually pass an occasional rider (that wasnt stalled out) on the track. Come on Butch, no need to pick on me to make excuses as to how you did on the track. I vote that Butch should be labeled a full-blooded sand-bagger. The main difference is that he spends his time BEFORE the moto making excuses (about weight, or how long its been since he rode last), only to go out and actually put it on some of us slower (that would be me) riders. I actually waited until AFTER the moto for a few, well-placed, well-intentioned comments (hereafter, reffered to as "smack-talking"). Let the debate begin.
Oh, and as to "being on fire," I merely told Butch that the track officials had stopped me and asked "where the fire was at?" I had been waiting to use that "groaner" for some time.
