Mood: Is 112 dB loud enough?? What??
Did track days for about 4 years and road riding for much longer than that. Two years ago, not long after dislocating my shoulder in a road accident, I quit riding on the road. The following season, I started racing. Haven't ridden a bike on the road since and don't miss it on bit. The current crop of sportsbike are way too fast for me on the road. No matter how good my intentions are at the outset, it always turns into a mini race, even when I rode on my own.

After a couple of seasons of racing, road riding is just too slow. If there is anything I'd miss about road riding, it is the meeting places like the market square at Helmsley, or Devil's bridge, or the Milkbar, or...

Other than that, it's track only for me. It will happen to you to, Tony.
