First let me start by saying that I had an amaizing time at the event. I drove 1400 miles out from Colorado and camped at the track for Thursday, Friday and Saturday night. Then when all the racing was done...hopped back in the car and started to drive home.

Seeing Nicky Hayden take the checkerd flag literally was worth driving 2800 miles for me. It just ment so much to see it all in person.

I also had the pleasure of meeting the forum's very own Skip Souza. He was even nice enough to help me out by lending me a battery for my 10D and took two of my batteries to his hotel and gave them a charge. (Since I was camping I didn't have any way of charging the batteries myself.) Thanks again Skip! :cool:

I took 2.5g worth of photos over the three day event. Although I would have always liked to get a lot more presentable photos...I was able to get a few descent ones.

Love the photos from the Corkscrew with the bikes leaning in both directions due the immediate left-right transition.
It was a great weekend, wasn't it Andy :-)


Bless the recently fallen and their family and friends.
I have a Cannon with me at all times. You can't take the shot if you don't have something with which to shoot. :rolleyes:

This is what they mean when they say lean angle.
