Yeah. He's on the top side of 320# + gear.
Hard to get much of a lean angle when you weigh as much as your bike. He definetly knows what he's doing. A month ago I was 5 seconds faster than him.
Not any more though. He's losing weight like crazy and I think that has a lot to do with his increased speed.
Can you immagine what your ride would feel like if you were 30 pounds lighter? I'm sure it is exciting for him. |

My suspension was way too stiff, and when I lost the back end it chattered and I bareley got it back before I went off the track.
Got it sorted later. The 2 guys I was following are friends. The chubby guy got his knee down for the first time in 17 track days on the 2nd lap of the vid.
Unfortunately ArchitectBob wasn't in my group. |

Awesome! I watched the whole thing and probably felt the same thing you did at 5:02. I like seeing how a bike is worked hard on a track. Well done Rat |
