It's not looking good at this point. My brothers wedding on the east coast coming up. Saving pennies. But who knows?

Re: barber in march?

Not sure if you stalwart road warriors have left yet...just wanted to say a couple of things..

1) Suck it.
2) Use the rubber side only.
3) Suck it.
4) Take many pictures.
5) If anybody has a six hole gas cap (Triumph) and would like to use my camera and mount, you're welcome to it. Takes all of a few minutes to explain and I have all the stuff you need to record someone else's posterior...oh that's right, you won't be behind anyone.
6) Hope it's a blast and suck it.

Not when your rubber slips out from under you. Bad, yes. I couldn't help it. Call it Tourette's.

So that's what one calls it.  I usually just say, "aw shit not again."

Do you think a 50 gallon hefty bag will pass tech?  I plan on sinching it down with some twine.

Re: barber in march?

Just got back (8:30 Monday). Good time had by all ( I hope).

Rode all 7 sessions Saturday in the rain. VERY STEEP learning curve! Mistakes severely punished. Remember, I was doing this a totally new bike to me that had I never even ridden on the street. VERY intimidating.

Rode through one big tank slapper at the exit of turn 10. Would like to think I did something to save it, but I'm sure the reality was it was just luck that intervened on my behalf.

Ended up going through the grass on the outside the corner to a paved pad where I got things collected and went on. This is the only corner on the track to have pavement runoff rather than gravel, so anywhere else I would have went down. Again LUCKY, LUCKY, LUCKY!!!

As the day went on this became a "favorite " place to crash as people lost the rear end under acceleration. Needless to say from that point on I tried a different strategy through that corner.

Sunday started out with a wet track for first 2 sessions (rain had stopped by 6:00 am). from that point on the track gradually dried out and we were able to get up to speed. By then there was a lot of pent up energy and each session was full of riders ready to really go for it and take no prisoners. So they started creating new places to crash like turn 1, 3, 8 and 12. Lot of red flags!

But in between the red flags, Barber was a blast. Fast, but not too fast and extremely challenging with no two corners alike. Tons of elevation change in, out and through corners with some great flowing corner combinations. Lot and lots of fun!

Now that we're back, I want to go again. It's only the 16-17 hour drive that holds me back.
But, bottom line is, I hope I find my way back to ride this track again someday.

Re: barber in march?

Champ was correct turn 8 will test your front end...I failed, twice. roll  I took a small measure of comfort in the fact that there were alot better riders than me going down there as well.   Not only was the track world class the rest of the facilities were as well; and if you're into history the museum itself was worth the trip.  Like paulc, I would love to go back.

We had the deal all worked out, but then the crashing started and we pretty much had to blow the entire budget on zip ties, duck tape and JB weld. Maybe we can work something out next time. Sorry!
