Wet Hen
August 19, 2015
Edit
Rain continues to autumn overnight together with into the adjacent morning time at Roebling Road. I am left amongst no choice but to position the pelting tires on the EX500. The FZR volition meet no activeness today unless it dries up. I could, inwards theory, swap the wheels from the EX on to the FZR (both bikes function the same wheels) but I convey no wish to function the FZR inwards the rain, together with since the Kawasaki is eligible to function all the Yamaha's classes, the EX volition live on pressed into double duty for the day.
Practice is wet, but the pelting tires hit to the lowest degree tolerable. I am non overly thrilled close learning a build novel to me rails nether these conditions, but oftentimes you lot cannot select your circumstances, it is only a affair of dealing amongst them.
As it happens, at that spot are iii pelting tire shod EX500s on the grid for the V5 race. Kurt Kesler is using his backup cycle instead of his FZ600 monster together with Michael Wagner is on his 500 every bit well. Should live on interesting. I convey beaten both of these riders before, but that was inwards the dry out on tracks I knew well.
Wayne Shelton disappears on his lightning quick 550 Yamaha Seca, leaving the EX500 trio to get produce for also-ran status. Rain falls harder together with the spray from the bikes compromises visibility, making it necessary to wipe the visor at the halt of the front end bespeak earlier Turn 1. As the race wraps, I come upwardly up on the shortest halt of the stick amongst or together with thence intermittent ignition work rearing it's ugly caput during the race, leaving the door opened upwardly for Kurt together with Michael to become past times on the end lap, relegating me to the fourth spot. Some days you lot convey to live on happy only non to autumn down.
