Street only?
Track only?
Street and track?
I just pose at local coffee shop?

I ride on the street only. Would like to do track days someday, but I want a different bike, for when I wad it up!

While I've spent a little time on the track (Schwantz School at Road Atlanta, California Superbike at Laguna, Assen on a rented Honda 929), it's all road these days. I'm lucky to be living within a few minutes of some great motorcycle roads in the North Georgia mountains, and while I'm a lot slower on them than the fast guys (but faster than the slow guys), they provide all the riding challenge that I need.

Remember: you test your skill on the track, but you test your luck on the road.

I have to ride to the good roads. LOL. Worth it in my opinion. But, riding is what i like to do. It is all I think about. I work to ride but dont ride to work. I live 4 miles from work. hardly worth it for me.

100% street, I'm in Western Virginia and play on some of the most wonderful roads the Appalachians have to offer. I love my Backyard!

western virginia is so nice. i rode through there in 2002. we were planning on riding from front royal to asheville on the brp. i almost smucked a deer going around a corner. we were so tired that after a long day we gave up and hit i81. rode in the rain and ended up in hillsville. next day hit the brp again and got to ashville.

RC...Track.
My Motard...Street and track.
The RC is just a hoot on the tracks I ride. The tard is faster than the vast majority of people that ride our back roads.

North Cascades HWY in washington state. Washington has some very nice roads....too bad they are only accessible a few months a year!

North Cascades is big sweepers. Fun, but Meh...
Neah Bay is way more fun. Way more technical.
