Never mind, I'm making this thing. Getting the bike fixed, rented a truck, bought a ramp, bikes already prepped, just need to tape the lights... I'm sleeping in my leathers tonight.

Thank you and Matt for the use of your facilities. You now have enough distilled water and water-wetter for a lifetime of bikes.

hey guys,

I and a few buddies will be in novice group on 4/7Sat.
First time on the big track! So excited already.

I'd be riding an obviously-wrecked mostly-flat-black 97 CBR900 with OEM red tank, I could be spotted easily from miles away.

BTW, what is a good way to weigh down canopies... last time, we had 3 of our 5 canopies got blown... any tip is greatly appreciated!

See you guys out there!
Drive safely on the way!
Tom

See ya there. Bring 4 5 gallon buckets and fill with water and then use tie downs to attach to the corners.

I can't wait for tomorrow... Got the truck, ramp, and bike will be prepped tonight...

The only thing I'm worried about is loading and unloading the bike. I'm one person and I've never done it alone before... any tips?
