PTT @ Thunderhill 2004.07.27

thunderhill park, july 27th, 2004.this was the first time the track was run backwards on motorcycles.it was very hot (100F) for most of the day. i drank 2 gallons of water and sweated it all. it was a brutal workout but i loved the track and aside from some nasty blisters on my hands, and a big ass headache, survived.i met some fine folks, especially kelly, an ex-f16 pilot who showed me some good lines in the trickiest portions of the track, and rob, a super nice local ducati man (who gets extra points for letting me ride his 999s from vacaville to oakland on the way home :)
