Riding around Richmond International Raceway. (November 6, 2016)

Much warmer than yesterday but another beautiful day in Richmond. On this Sunday rode out to Richmond International Raceway (aka RIR) for a little five lap session on the track. It was thanks to a $20 donation to charity that we got to do that. There was a good number of people there and had to wait a short while. Good though, as it was fun to look around and watch the cars and motorcycles running. Finally got to be our turn.  

Ride around the track was great. Adam had the Hayabusa at right, he flew around the track. Said he hit 110 and I believe it. I settled for 100 a couple of times. Surprised and pleased we got to go that fast, though the pace car did slow us down (all of us, we were sort of in the middle) after a couple of fast laps. Have done this sort of thing on the Vulcan when I lived in Charlotte, have to say as far as motorcycles on a racetrack, Richmond was a lot more fun. Course its also a lot smaller at Richmond, and a lot more intense. At any case had a great time, would certainly do it again and will I am sure down the road. After that we rode out to my house (Adam had never seen it) and I rode out to Chester, VA to his place and that was a nice ride out in the Country. First ride with Adam and it was pretty cool. This was a very fun day in the RVA.
