Speak for yourself, Mr. I-was-only-out-every-other-session-guy. Wuss.
didn't you take the second half of the last day off entirely. you gave up even before the hurricane hit. and its so rough being you. other than the one time you had a friend come and visit you unexpectedly you had a nice peaceful day, laying out in the grass in the nice weather.

In my sessions I frequently saw Jetbdude, Evl_Twn and NorthernRR, among others, quite a good distance in front of me, with me trying desperately (and ultimately in vain), to catch them, or alas, avoid being lapped by them.

Better that than to start off tired, and still ride You wouldn't believe how much energy you can get just from being around this bunch though, makes a lack of sleep not even noticeable.

I think I did every session all three days last year. I was even the lone fool out on the grid when that hurricane was just about to hit. Howdie looked at me, looked at the sky, and we both thought better of letting me go out, so I turned around and got the bike into the trailer just as all hell let loose. I was really, really glad I didn't go out, I would have probably just gotten to the sweeper when it hit. That was some freakin' storm!

This year the sheepfold will have weather radar in the pits so I hope to avoid the loss of my popup (that was a great popup, I got another one of the same brand and it was lame )

Been there... no more of that for me Remember that commercial where the couple go on vacation and when they get home there is that Mexican band still playing in their living room insinuating that they are still paying for the trip, going ‘make it stop’? Well this trip I wouldn't mind still having bikes in the living room after...but I'll still pay cash.

Actually,
My Buddy, Eric, was on the track at the time and I remember him flying up in to the paddock and screaming "grab my bike stand now!" As soon as I had thing on the stand the weather hit and we were hanging on to the easy up for dear life just trying to guide away from everyone's equipment.
I hope to make all 3 days... I've been saving so watch out
Yes, I miss your snowplow... my little snowblower doesn't do as good as you did but keeps me fit LOL

Ya got my vote. You'd be on a different bike each time you passed me and I'd be like who the hell was-- oh.. its Brian again. damn him.

PM his info. I'll have my cousin Vinny go have a little chat with him if you know what I mean.
If that doesnt work we'll just send Seamus to pick you up in his work vehicle that friday. Tell him its a G-14 classified mission and we'll bring you back in a week. After seeing you stand behind that 9' tall bohemoth I'm sure you'll be granted two weeks off.

Thinking about making this one somehow. Anyone heading up from Southern Cali?
COOL!! Hope you can make it!! It would be great to see you again!

Dude! Sorry I missed your message on AIM. I was either on the laptop or already sleeping. The other machine was running AIM and up since I had been messing with my embedded stuff.
