Feeling a little wore-out, but in a good way.

Riding a roadracing motorcycle is physically demanding.  I was not in shape for Sunday's trackday at Palm Beach International Raceway.  I hadn't ridden my R6 in nearly 18 months.  And while I run regularly for cardio fitness, I haven't been going to a gym for upper body workouts since I left Portland.

So now, after six 20 minute sessions on the track, I am sore all over.  But that's okay, because it was great.

My Cycletune prepared Yamaha worked great.  The engine felt more powerful than ever.  Riding PBIR is fun: great surface, 170 mph straight and three 180 degree sweeping turns that make for lots of knee-drgging time.
