Good thing it wasn't the bozo in the back of the picture, he would have bled out.

There were lots of bozos dressed like that. It was really hot. But they still scared the hell out of me on the gravel road going in and out.

Riding semi-staggered with 500 Nicky Haydens in shorts is terrifying.

I loved the guy that zips past 20 of us to get right back in line. What a champ! - oh, he was in shorts and tennis shoes, too.

I am so suprised that I didn't see dozens of crashes - honestly.

Please all you champs who came unprepared, don't forget your obligatory LOUD aftermarket exhaust and fender eliminator. It's part of the look, you know.

Re: Leaving Laguna...

The gravel road was kicking up all kinds of rocks. I was laughing when i saw people with the little brain bucket helmets. one guy fell over at the gate getting his ticket out. It would have been nice to have been warned a bit earlier.

I had a great time! just wish i would have known about the schedual change. I missed the other races due to the heat beating me up.
