Nürburgring Easter 2009

Hey guys,

Just got back from Nürburg. Had a great trip but I didn't really get on with the bike and the track this time round. Having crashed on my last lap there I wasn't mentally up for any proper speed. Also, a new bike didn't help, stick on top of that that I didn't buy a year ticket this year (~€1100).
Loved the preciseness and accuracy of the SDR. Sadly I wasn't able to get any confidence in the rear tyre. It felt like it was stepping out just as I was turning into a corner and I wanted to get power through the tyre. I don't know what or why (I'll post a separate topic about that at some point).
End result; slowest laps in a long time. My girlfriend was faster! And I only managed 14 laps in total - something I'd easly do in a day in previous trips.


Either way, managed to make it look good for the cameras.

You do look like you are moving fast and everything is going well!
A While ago i done a track day at Cadwell on my Ducati 998bp and i was not fast by any means but i was told that i have mastered the art of going slow but looking good

Which i think is much more valuable than going fast and looking/bad

Only one thing is better and that is going fast and looking good but that is something i dream off

NICE PIC'S
Thanks guys! Image is everything, laptime is nothing.
