Great write up E, its awesome that you're getting out there, learning and having fun, thats what its all about. Lean angle and hanging off in corners comes with confidence and practice so the more you practice this,(on the track) the more confident you'll get. I think the hardest part for me was trusting my bike which really translates into trusting my tires, once I understood that they really would do more than I could possibly imagine lean angles and scaping knees become greater and common place. I do not practice this on a street but having said that it has certainally helped my street riding skills and ability to navigate corners with way less of a pucker factor than before, I'm confident I can navigate corners now if i'm in a little hotter than I really wanna be by my learnings on the track. Great write up on your track day experiences and what to expect, very imformative and what I believe to be a must do for any and every sport bike rider, afterall, why do we ride these things over cruisers, speed, excitement and the ability to rail through corners...........it just doesn't get any better. Now about that peeing thing outside your truck..................................................................... :P

Martina.............i'm sorry I missed that :P
