Two minutes is a long time to sit and watch a scary movie that you expect to be a CGI cartoon. Suckers!

Theoretically it was yesterday, so cause there isnt a wmyfgy thread this will do...

Took the ducati for a advanced riding course @ Eastern Creek yesterday and I tell ya

the best fcuken fun ive ever had.

Last session was a free for all, put what you learnt during the course into action.

Turn one when your approaching it hitting nearly 250kph certainly widens your eyes..... but when you nail a near perfect lap it feels so good!

Plenty more to learn, plenty more to practice, but I think more track days are on the cards for sure....

Driving around in the safety of a car is cool, but when you've only got 2 wheels, and bugger all around you to protect you, it makes you recalculate things..... and really appreciate how talented some of these professional riders/racers are.

Cost me $440 for the course jetters

Course ran from 8:00 to 4:30 with heaps of track time. You would have something to do, like emergency braking at three checkpoints around the course, but then the rest of the track is your own, and they encouraged you getting on it! :thumbsup:

Just to do a track day with no instructing is $220, weekend its $250.

They've were starting to ball up on the edges.... I was adjusting the traction control as my confidence improved, and the brembo's were copping a flogging, but im still nowhere near the limit of that bike. Dont think ill ever be.

but when your tucked under heading down the main straight, and your helmet feels like its going to rip your head off, and the 300 metre marker flashes past you..... no moment in any car can replicate that.
