Re: July 4 FM4 Blast - Moderate (mostly slabbing it)

Another great ride today. Sorry I had to leave so quickly from Palo Pinto. I wanted some time on my own on FM 4 to practice mid to high speed braking and also I wanted the opportunity to evaluate some cornering techniques I have been reading about. (Get into some mid speed cornering)

Re: BiLT Products.

It sounds like Bilt Track Star leather products are (1) cheap price (2) average to poor quality (3) 5 year guarantee. The reason why I bring up the 5 year guarantee is this. When I was coming up in the construction trade we would buy the Craftsman brand tape measures and other Craftsman brand tools ...

Re: MSRC Weekend.

[color=#BF0000]I only stayed thru race 11. Are you talking about race 10? I do believe Wagnon won that race also.
I do not remember that being much of a race. CMRA has not posted the MSRC results yet for this weekend.

Re: Looking thru the Faceshield again!!!!!

Attempting to post a picture of my bike. No luck so far. I will try and contact the administrator tomorrow.
