We had dinner this evening with some folks from East Tennessee Riders. It was a German place and they had great food.
It was great to see some good folks who I have not seen in a while. I have to say that Brad from the Deals Gap Motorcycle Resort is one heck of a classy guy.
I just cannot put into words how much fun I am having. Seeing these guys race in person for the first time in my life has just been awesome. The riding skill I witnessed today was incredible. Never in my life have I seen anything like this. Qualifying was unbelieveable.
Yesterday in the rain Anthony West was like a machine. The guy was just unreal. Today, in perfect conditions he qualified 19th. Dead last. Hopkins came in at 16th. I wish somebody could explain to me why these Kawasaki’s are so awesome in the rain and so pitiful when it is dry.
Tomorrow looks like it will be in the rain so that is going to mix things up a bit. I am going with 1. Rossi 2. West and 3 Spies. Stoner will crash.
