Anyone going to MotoGP/Laguna Seca

Is anyone out there going to Laguna Seca for the MotoGP next week? I will have my Spyder there and we have parade lap passes so she'll get a run on the track and a crack at the famous Corkscrew! I passengered that ride last year, I'm really excited to ride this time!

It was the first place I ever saw a Spyder, there were two VP demo bikes there. The nice people let me sit on one and I was hooked. Had to wait till Labor Day to test ride and buy.

I would love to meet up with some Spyder lovers there. Just let me know what day and we'll make a plan. We'll also be down in Monterrey at Bike Night on Saturday after the Races.

'Sounds like you will have a great time! 'Makes me wonder if there will one day be a racing series for the Spyder. I mean, afterall; sidecar racing has been a big hit in Europe for years. I guess, they still race those.

I don't know how they do the parade lap anymore, but the longer you wait to enter the track, the better it was. Your speed up front is limited by a pace bike or car, but in the back, you can slow down and let things clear out and enjoy it and a few corners!

Last year they took us out in escorted groups. You really didn't have a choice, you lined up and wherever they cut the group off was it. They don't let you go real fast, but I think we were doing almost 60 on the straight right after the Andretti hairpin. Fast enough for me as a passenger.

I am a little worried, since the Spyder will cut a totally different line, but I think I'll just follow Hubby on his vintage BMW R100RS and stay in his tracks.
