...well at least in my own mind.



The track sells about a bajillion tickets for this, and with good reason. It freakin' rocks!

. Hundreds, if not thousands, of bikes line up outside turn 4, then get to ride onto the Indy Oval, then take a lap behind a pace bike around the MotoGP course. Our guide seemed to be generous with his pace

. I struck up a conversation with the guys in front of us, a couple of Italians from Detroit, riding Ducatis they'd had autographed by Rossi, and they were looking forward to seeing themselves on video. I've included a map of the course in the corner so you can follow progress around the track.

 
damn thats a lot of traffic..but I saw some openings.. That was pretty cool.

We just did the same thing at Road America during SuperBike... My GF has been to the track a few times but never got to ride on the track.... I've done track days there with the FJR a couple times now - certainly don't get to get 'er up to speed like a track day, but no question it was a great experience and lots of fun for her to ride pillion...

Price was $25 per person, not per bike.... but the smile was easily worth the cost....

 
I'm bad enough trying to hold down my speed on the road, no way I could get on a track. Fun video...thanks!
