Great photos. Nice action. Those fellows are a bit nuts; but who am I to judge. They have leathers one...what could go wrong? Thanks.

Nice bike pics at the strip - thanks for sharing!
I can relate to the sudden stop part. Was doing about 150 on my 'busa in the country on 7/1/06 when things went wrong. I bounced, slid, skidded, and rolled down the Hwy for 800 FT; broke both femurs like toothpicks, fractured L4 vertebrae in back, airlifted to Charleston hospital, long recovery road - have titanium rods in legs now, but a-ok thanks to the grace of God - was wearing good helmet. Back to 4 wheels now - ha.

Ouch, hurts just reading this...

Are you off bikes now totally?

By the way, hows the circular polarizer shots looking?

I've ridden friend's bikes a few times in the past few years, not much - still love 'em, but no more crotch rockets for me - ha; I'm too old to die now, LOL. Got over 800 miles on my Trek 3700D Mtn bike in the last 6 mths. Haven't taken many pics yet since I got the filters, just a few in the woods - guess I'll really be able to tell when I do more car shows in sun light maybe? ....or around water? (Plenty of that around here)

Just started to re-assemble my sons Suzuki GSXR750R which he dragged. Taken a while to take the twist out of the frame from all wheel stands. Thanks for the photos.
