[QUOTE="ed29, post: 496061, member: 12898"] I am in for the October 5 track day at Cresson. One thing RideSmart does to encourage sampling is they have 'parade laps' at lunch time. No special prep is required, street gear (jacket gloves, helmet) suffices. No need to tape or remove mirrors. It is also free of charge. They tell you at the start that it is going to be slow going, but if the instructor leading the 'parade' sees that everyone following is competent they can raise the speed at their discretion. Taking the off camber curves somewhere between 45 and 50 MPH on the FJR was just the thrill I needed to convince myself that a track day was in my future. If you think there is the slimmest chance that you might ever want to do a track day I heartly encourage you to visit Cresson during the Oct 5 track day. Admission is free, the parade laps are free, and there are a few good roads on the way there and back. Not a bad way to spend a Sunday. [/QUOTE]
