I know it isn't quite as big of a thing here in the states, or anywhere thanks to COVID, but Moto Gymkhana is a fun and laid back event to hone your motorcycle skills.

I also get to play with my camera!!

Closed down some streets and parking lots and setup some cones for a fun afternoon!

All different bikes are invited to our events.

The bigger bikes take a lot more skill to navigate the course. Unfortunately I missed getting photos of the Harley Cruiser piloted by a local motorcade Police officer, that was dang impressive.

Personally I ride a dual sport bike with supermoto wheels for its agility!

This is not me but is similar in style.

The best part to me is hanging out with my friends and family while getting to ride.

My buddy's kids got to try out lots of different bikes!

Have you tried panning with a slower shutter speed? Right now, they look parked on the pavement and there's little sense of movement. Slow it down to 1/100th or so and see what happens!

Thanks for the suggestion!

Panning is on my list of things to learn how to accomplish!

#1 lined up for what they called the key hole. 25' diameter circle with only 3' entrance. #2 is inside the key hole. Smelled a lot of burning clutches.In my opinion these Honda ST1100's sound like a bunch of sewing machines. My local PD now uses them for training and crashing only and have switched to BMW's
