Thanks to all the members for helping make the opening event a huge success!:congrats:

I also want to thank all the CR's for the great job considering the sold out event!!! You are the guys that make NESBA!

Special thanks to Fat Chuck and Mike for their opening event of vending services. Steve Brubaker for talking to everyone about Dunlop tires. John Robinson for capturing the fun of the track with Pics of You. Mike Fitzgerald, aka Thermosman, for all the suspension work. And last but not least all the guys from Yamaha!

I believe that is supposed to be PhatChuck, but either way the Performance Cycleworx crew did an excellent job.

Don't do that. DJ, Allen, and Pitzer you should keep the multi-input format. It adds to the "engagement" factor of a very important meeting. While I understand the value of a single source for info during an important meeting, the quick witted humor keeps people engaged and wakes up the "snoozers". Out of all of the riders meeting meeting I have been to that had the most questions from the riders. Answered questions are only second to experience in cognitve retention testing.

I have had to bite my tongue several times, I have a tough time resisting a good cop/bad cop lecture.

I have to agree. While no one wants a long meeting, I thought that a lot of important information was transmitted during the Q&A part.

It was an awesome weekend while it lasted! I lost the front going into turn 1 during the 3rd session Saturday morning. I was riding well and going quick up to that point! Nevertheless, it was good to get back on the track and see old friends. This trip was my son Gabriel's first time being my helper in the pit, and he did a great job.

You'll be seeing me hunting for '06 R6 parts in the "parts and accessory" forum. The low-side was all good until the bike hit the kitty litter and took to the air. She landed on her head destroying the fuel tank and bending the subframe.

I'm looking forward to seeing some "I" group videos.

Peace,

PJ I'm glad your weren't hurt in that off there in turn 1. Someone else on Sunday in the B group had an off there too. Anyway it was a pleasure meeting you and Gabriel. I was pitted right next to you with the black & yellow R1.

Fitty - she's moaning a lot, and still pissed, which means she's doing ok.

PJ - I was bummed to see you not in your leathers dude! Get her fixed up and ready for Road Atl!

And she's using interesting curse words, mostly directed at me. She doesn't think I'm as funny as I do...

I'm fine. The shoulder is explaining to me just how unhappy it is about my get off in turn one, but other than soreness and stiffness I am pretty good.

And I do think Dave is pretty funny!!

Great meeting you to hermano! Let me know if you are coming back down to Barber in the fall. I'll bring my daughter as well next time and the kids can hangout together. Congrats on your bump to "I". I look forward to chasing you.

What a great weekend to start the season . Great ambiance in the Paddock. Great NESBA crew as usual. Barber grounds and Crew are stellar. Big thanks to Donny from Dynoworks and Thermos Man for setting up my suspension. Made a huge difference on the ole R1. Now it's all my fault if i don't get bumped the next time. ;)

Perfect weather! What a great way to start the season. Thanks to everyone for putting on a great show. Big thanks to T-Man for helping me out with my suspension and Performance Cycle for getting my buddy squared away.

Hope everyone who went down heals up and patches the holes in time for the next event!

Definitely a great weekend. I wanted to thank JRA for letting borrow a front master cylinder after my mishap in turn 12 during the 3rd session on Saturday. I was definitely the slowest guy out there in I group Sunday morning with the crash memory still lingering. I am finally becoming comfortable on the 600rr after my first two days on it.

It was good meeting you guys. I was the guy in A group pitted besides you guys. My friend had the new toy hauler.

Glad you were able to get back out there with John's help. He is the best.

Barber...SWEET TRACK!!! my pirelli's were not agreeing with me all day saturday and finally bit my arse in T2/3 on sunday. apologize for the red flag.

have a sweet video that i need to edit of West or Nash demonstrating what i usually only get to see on TV.

thanks to all the superfast guys for demonstrating that i could probably go faster through every turn.

Thanks to John Allen for his version of the line, really helped through T1

Congrats on the bump to I group bro. Instead of me trying to keep up, now I can watch while you're out on the track. Good job and way to represent 2Winz Racing. :congrats:
