To my Ducati1199 family, what up
.
I'd like to emphasize that i'm a grown ass man and obviously I don't respond to anyone on here in "daddy mode" or "forum police" mode.
I totally accept and digest feedback and even criticism, but what I reject is a certain tone or lecture..get the .... outta here with that .....
None of you are telling me anything I don't consider every time I throw my leg over my iron horse. I've witness my share of accidents and numerous fatalities including my best friend 2 yrs ago who made headlines the way he passed away. I've had many spills on the street and on the track.
In fact I am a MSF Rider Coach, so don't continuously tell me .... about calculated risk. I sometimes lead a group of less experienced riders out to such locations and ride absolutely by the book and by the law so they gain the confidence....but every now and then I like to put on my leathers and with a very selective few, go secretly break the law if you will....don't worry, even off duty cops do this...who are you kidding.
Yes there are residents who live miles off the main road, but can still hear our machines and have called the cops out there....but there's a reason I've yet to be cited for riding the way I do back there (knock on rubber). That's exactly where the cops expect and want us to let off steam (with reasonable risk management).
Anyway...mode vids to come
