Well, it's already been going on over on the West Coast, but this is the official start for us east of the Mississip.

It was cold and wet for most of the weekend.

The patch job in this turn was a little slippery compared to the rest of the tarmac.

But some people didn't mind the inside line.

Well that's it until the weekend after next when I go to Roebling Road Raceway right outside Savannah with Sportbike Track Time. That won't be a race - just a track day.

    Not help what? Being cold? Most of the time they're perforated, so that's the reason for sweatshirt over them. Seems to work better than wearing it under them.

    I often wear a waterproof jacket (like a Patagonia pull over) on a cold day. Really helps keep the wind out and make your leathers warmer than they would be :)
