HEY!!!?? You forgot to clarify "present company excluded"!!!!


Ok, ok... He's actually right, Janis.. Unfortunately. Do you think it's an "American" thing? Either way, that comment definitely does not pertain to any of the ladies I've come across in this forum (few though they are), so far.

We all have a high level of respect for you ladies (red7eb, suzukigirl1, janis, etc.) You ladies know how to ride, do it safe, AND own your OWN bikes.

sorry uncle bob, I meant do you have to hire someone or does a friend do it? That pic looks real professional.

I don't know across the ocean, but here in Italy there's always a professional photographer during the races or any track event.
Of course he (they, there are more than one) makes you pay a lot for those pics, that's why I don't have many of myself.
The ones I have are with my cbr at the moment, don't know if I'm allowed to post them here...are Hondas tolerated here?
(and I have still have to find out how to post pics anyway)

kisses, Janis

ciao, Janis
That will make a big difference!

I move around on the curves too but on the straights I use my legs and back to hold me up....takes lots of pressure off my wrists.

Just like when you're braking except do it while cruising.
Got it! Thanks again!

baci, Janis
