UPDATE:
We will be heading to a parking lot after the ride to practice some riding techniques and exchange advice, observations, and tips.
All skill levels will benefit from this. Don't miss out!



Meet Up Time/Date: 6:00pm Sunday, August 17th - Kickstands up at 6:15pm!
Meet Up Spot: The Chevron across from the Red Rock Casino. MAP

Route: Charleston/159 to the Red Rock Scenic Loop entrance. Through the loop... maybe one or two more trips through the loop. Stop off at the Overlook and kick back for a sec.

Maybe get some food and/or go to a bike night event...

We all can make excuses why we can't ride, so let's make some excuses to get out and enjoy the evening temps!

Post up your INs!!!

NOTE: Please bring and wear proper gear (gloves, jacket, footwear).
This includes passengers.
Also, have valid M endorsement and insurance.

I am going to make this one. Maybe we can setup the practise range for a bit after RR and do some cornering practise.

That would be cool.
Do you already have a parking lot in mind we could use ?
I guess it would have to be lighted somewhat.

Remember I painted Lee Parks course at the school on Harmon just east of Jones and it's still very visible.

I just thought you might like a place that has 2, 40' circles already marked out. I didn't know there was a rule that says you have to use both of them if they're already marked.

Once again the ride was awesome even though we had to slow down a bit on the last run

The cornering practice after the run was fucking :AWESOME: I can't wait till next time thanks VEGASVIDEO.
Here are some more pics:...............

We got to know the new ranger in the park really well. He has a Harley in storage....we need to get him on a sport bike to see how the other half lives.

Indeed, I'd like to do it every other week.
Maybe I'll run it when you are not available Pat.
And maybe do it earlier on Sundays, and then do a run after.

Id like to get more peeps to attend as well.

Thanks to those that showed up and participated!
