Lol, the dirtbike experience showed, both in your save AND the cause, but we'll talk later about that :)
Just so you know, coach Paul is one of my teammates on the TeamChallenge endurance races on my Pani.
Any of you who were in Red group Saturday may have seen 2 panis laying on their sides with rear wheels still turning in T10. One was mine, the other another member who can chime in if he wants. I'm fine, bike is fine , him and his bike are banged up but fixable. He is a FAST rider. Just saying, sometimes it just happens, even more when you are playing hard, and we were rippin!!!

Yeah thats gonna be a fun convo lol. Im glad I warned you all that I am a re-work in progress lol. I wish you guys ran NJ every weekend.

And I may take you up on the car ride. They were flying.
 
Actually the cause is common, short vision transitioning into target fixation. You came thru that super fast turn and looked out to your exit, the outside curbing. As you got out there it seemed you were too far out, focused on where you were afraid you were going and bingo, that's where you went. This is very common at the track but dirt bikers wrestle with it the most. In dirt you ride with very short vision, eyes on the terrain and obstacles. In this world, you need to have been looking way down that straightaway with the apex and exit (outside curb) in your peripheral only. Next time we ride, I'll help you learn how to do it ;)

there was that oh .... moment then I sat her straight up and voila grass riding. Well I will be there again May 10th with you guys so I will have to paddock near you and Paul.

Mito, how was it at NCbike, do tell!
Guys coming to njmp, if you stay for 2 or 3 days, hang around with us at night if you want to meet all the really cool kids, always fun in the paddock! We will be announcing something exciting we are doing that weekend(besides the steak BBQ and the airshow) in the next few days. I will have my girl Vicki with me, so if any want to bring along their significant others, she is a great hostess and would be great company if you'd like to come hang.
