Messing with my Aprilia Cup

Looks great!

 

Well, that was fun.

I kicked off last weekend by throwing myself on the ground from my road bicycle, wrenching the hell out of my back so I wasn't sure I could even ride today but it turned out fine.

I'm semi-competent on my 848 at NJMP Thunderbolt. I ran some 33.4s last time I was there, on a bike probably capable of 27s. Really fast guys on R6s can get in the 26s. Had no idea what to expect on the Rs250. I thought anything in the 50s would be OK for my first session. My first hot lap was a 46 and I got in the 42s in the first session. 2nd session, I figured a few things out and had a few 38.2s. That was as fast as I went as it got hotter.

Ran 4 sessions and called it. I was hot as hell and thinking I should probably go over it thoroughly. The only problem all day was a clip on moved a little.

The bike is laughing at me. It has so much more to give.

This thing is cool as hell.

 

Feking EPIC

 

^^ AWESOME

 

These RS250s are probably my fav track bike ever. So much fun and yeah, they do move right along once you figure them out!
