To all the true track junkies: List out the tracks you have ridden. Let's see where you've been.

I'm off today to go to Welkom and the Dubai Autodrome racetracks. I have three days at Welkom followed by a supermoto day in Joburg. Then it's off to Dubai for two days at the track. I'll try to get lots of picts and post them when I'm back.

Looking for a particular Isle of Man crash video: Shows a guy getting into a very high speed wobble, then he gets spit off the bike. Once he gets airborne, the bike striaghtens out and coasts along on its own.

I'm looking into making my own shipping cases - the "Anvil" brand type cases you see professional sound equipment transported in. Anyone know where the raw materials can be obtained to construct your own?

The guy who owns Barber Motorsports Park has a good sense of humor. This can be found outside of turn 13.

When I was at the Laguna GP, I could easily smell the exhaust of the superstockers and superbikes--you know that race gas smell. But when the motoGP bikes were out I could not smell anything. Seems like they are burning something different. Anybody know what they use? On a different but related...

I just got a set of kangaroo leathers and I'm wondering if anyone has any experience with them stretching at all; such as a cowhide set does.

The answer is probably already out there, but I did a search and could not find anything... How do I put a link in my signature section? I cut and pasted it, but it just showed up as text and would not link if I clicked on it. Something I'm doing wrong, do you need a certain number of posts...

So Larry Miller put 80 million into his track outside of Salt Lake City as most of you already know. The track is huge and offers a few different configurations. I rode the east course. Anyway the track is very wide and ultra smooth. Plenty of run off and they even tamped down the gravel along...

I was coaching at Miller Motorsports Park this week and two Oklahoma Highway Patrol officers attended. They brought their patrol bikes which turned out to be 'Busas!

WTF is this? http://media.putfile.com/UFO_WTC

This link shows where Rossi sits amongst other high paid athletes. Interesting. I heard he was going to get 100 mil euros for 3 years with Ferrari. http://buzz.yahoo.com/buzz_log/?fr=fp-buzz-title

Right at the end of the MotoGP race intros, a female voice comes on and says something like: "are you ready boots?" What do you make of it?

Miladin is no idiot. Coming out of the chicane leading on the last lap during a battle is the worst place to be at Daytona. However Matt took a calculated risk by backing out of it and then doing to Ben exactly what Ben was planning to do the Matt. I wonder what would have happened if Ben backed...

I just got back from riding at Phillip Island and Eastern Creek in Australia. They are among the best motorcycle tracks I've ever ridden. Eastern Creek's entire track has only two minor bumps and the rest is smooth as a pool table. It has a nice long downhill front straight going into a very...

I'm going to Phillip Island and Eastern Creek in early Jan to help coach some schools out there. Pretty pumped about going. Not to mention the fact that it will be summer down there. There was frost on my bike in the morning the last time I rode at Sears a few weeks ago! When I get back from...

So here's a question for you all: Who was the first person to coin the word "superbike"? I've traced it back pretty far but want to see if anyone knows where the word first came from.

Hey there. I'm new to the forum. Been riding for 26 years. I do some street riding but most of my riding is on the track these days. I like to keep up with what is going on in the sportbike world: racing, tech developements, riding techniques, etc.
