Were stuck here this weekend Chaz, I think the next time I ride will be at Ward on the 26th. Maybe I'll meet you out there.

Take care.

Well, the weather is changing and you guys know what that means!!! It's HORN time!! We need to put together a group ride out there. BBQ, BEER and alot of Braaapppppp! Love that place for winter riding. Oh and summer too!

Went to Horn this weekend to escape the rains. Great weekend! In the 80's, track was really a blast. I like the direction now. I haven't been out all year so first time on this layout. The rythm section in the middle is a blast. Really smooth double, triple, quad into the left hander. The step down is a great whips jump as well and flows into the floating right hander where you have to hold it to the stops on the 450 to clear the single single. I got a chance to see Dan on his new Honda 450. He looked good. We swapped bikes for a bit and did some suspension comparisons. I have to say I like the light weight feel of the Honda although it took some getting used to. The powerband feels slower but you don't realize how fast your going until it's time to slowwwwww down....! Engine noise is load compared to the Suzuki. Must just be that uni-cam. Other than that... Not too crowded out there. They split our pro class up from the junior and beginners which was nice. 20 minute motos.

MY first ride back since breaking my ribs and punctured lung went good as far as I didnt have any issues with my ribs... Holy S am I out of shape though! My timing is way off, slow in the corners, over jumping, uggghh. The track was great as usuall and it was the perfect place to get going again as I just feel super comfortable with the track. I'm looking forward to weekends again!

Rode the track today, and in spite of getting cut short with snow, that place is awesome!

I was really impressed with the new layout, had a great time. I look forward to going back when the weather is a little more cooperative.

This is what it looked like yesterday B.S., or Brian Sharkey. This was late morning so my fingers weren't doing what they were suppose to or at the same time my brain was telling them too so it's pretty cruddy riding . not that it's ever good!

Left about 6:15 am got there about 9:55. Roads were mostly bare and wet. Passes were all bare. Gonna do the trek again possibly, track is great.

Thanks again for letting me come along John and Aaron! It was a blast until the goggles snowed in after a lap at a time. Pretty odd getting back home to find it sunny and nice at home!!
