the RIP post got me a thinking......

Why do we / you / I do track days?
Bear with me, I know there is a track day section.

Initially it was to make me a better rider on the road and so I could learn some real skills and learn how to ride properly.

So the post about the death last night in L'pool got me thinking - and that's a first today don't ya know - I too do not really like road riding, but love track days.

I'd love a track day only bike but when the sun does shine there's nothing better than a good blat along some back roads on a sports bike, but I always feel relieved / surprised to be home in one piece.

I know the 748 ain't that practical as a bike to commute upon, and I have it in hibination during the winter months, so why not have a dedicated track bike and a run-around for day-t-day stuff?

Anyhow, does anyone else feel this way?
And why do / did you do track day(s)?
