    Coleman's Jenny Report (long & funny)

    Lawdog51 and I made the 875 mile trip to Jenny on Thursday night, got there on Friday. Did all this to get to good weather. Well the sportbike gods shined on us. It was not the 75 degrees that was stated in the 15 day report, but it was a nice sunny 62-64 degrees, with a nice breeze too. From what I been hearing about the weather up north, I have no complaints.Cool

     

    First session, it was chilly, and I am sportin new rubber. I chilled, they started falling like flies. At JenningsGp, you can sign up for what group you want to ride in. That tells you a lot right there. One fella that I met from another board, got pumped up on the second session, and since his buddy passed him, and he knew he was faster than his buddy, he went after him. No matter that this was the first lap and his pilot powers street tires were cold. He went down, sprained hand, and he was booked for two days, now he has to watch.

     

    In the meantime, I am picking up a little speed at each session. Supposed to be working on my form, which stinks to high heaven. Can’t seem to get low. I need a personal coach on this.  After lunch, I picked up a little more speed. I was getting more comfortable with the speed, so I went for a little more.   About the second or third session after lunch, I get hot. I hook up behind some fast guys, and they carry me through the turns fast. Then all of sudden my 600rr starts talking to me. Told me it was takin over, and to hold on. Coming up on turn 13, I pick off two of my leaders, and then hooked up behind the others.  They take me around even faster.

     

    Sheesh, I am just holding on to the 600rr. Now, my 600rr takes aim at one of the other two going into turn 13. The 600rr shoots to the inside, I respond by looking through before I get to my turn point, and roll on at the same time I turn in. That rider was stabbed. Cool

     

    The 600rr wasn’t finished. The lead rider was ahead on me balling down the front straight. The 600rr revved up. I said to myself “oh no you don’t”.  Sheesh, the 600rr was closing fast on the rider in front coming up on turn 1. The 600rr is still moving fast, the lead rider brakes and turns, I slightly brake, went deeper, got on the gas right at turn in, and pulled one of the sweetest outside passes I ever did. I went around the outside of the lead rider at full tilt. I exited faster than him too, came up to turn two, and line up 3,4 & 5, so I can hit almost in a straight line, banged them, and now they had a new leader!!Cool

     

    Now, the crew  that were following me were in the intermediate class, just like me. My buddy lawdog51 was watching all the action. He told me they followed me for two laps and couldn’t catch me. And right about that time I was at my limit. I said fack this, cause I ain’t never went this fast. I am quiting while I am ahead, on the 3rd lap of leading, coming up to 11, I raised my hand. And zoom, zoom, they shot by me. Smile

     

    While sitting near my trailer, the rider that I passed in turn 1 came over and told me that was a slick pass. I didn’t want to tell him, that is wasn’t me, I was on auto pilot and the 600rr was doing it. Steelrain put a pass on me like that at turn 1 at SP a while back, and I told him, I always want to learn that move. Well, I still haven’t learned it, but my 600rr has. Cool

     

    Getting down to the last session, I go out and do about 3 fast laps, and decided to call it quits. I got tomorrow to do.   No, no pics, and no lap times. In reality, my form sucks, and for a few sessions, I was able to ride over my head, and get away with it. That’s the honest truth!!Cool I am sore from head to toe. When you do Jenny, with any kind of pace, you are moving the bike, one way or another and you are moving it fast. My age is showing.

     

    Tomorrow, I will work on my form, and try to keep the bike from taking over.. Cool

     

    All in all a fun day,

    Just go back from a 25 minute run, it is 6:30 am and there is frost on the cover of my truck bed. It is about 35 degrees outside. Still can't complain.  Temps are going to be the same as yesterday. About 62 to 65 degrees, with sunshine and some clouds. I will take it.

    Going to work on my form, all day, form, form and more form!!!!Smile

    Cool P, this is some fun chit down here. And Jennifier is a living sweetheart, a dollbaby. I get the red carpet treatment down here. Smile,

    BTW, just like yesterday and today I be wearing long johns under my Under Armour chit. Plus, a ski mask. 

    Just checking the weather for Summit, you guys/gals be careful up there. That 45 degrees is almost like a wet track, the tires never going to get really up to temp. Prayers are with all you guy/gals doing Summit, ride safe, be smart, and have big fun.. Cool

    To finish up my 4/7-4/8 at Jennings report, it was sweet. On Sunday, Easter day, the temps got to around about 61. It was 44 in the morning for the first session, and to my suprise I was ready to go.  I was cool, keep the pace at about 50%... Lawdog51 set out that session. We hooked up with another guy named David on a 636.. All three of us were about equal in skill level, so we diced it all day. That was big fun.

    Also, couple other dudes from another board came over, and told me that they wanted to make sure they met me. Those two were SHIFT-CLASS-RIDERS.. Now, they were on pilot powers street tires. One them crashed the first session on the day before, both of them claimed to only had 2 trackdays. Almost nobody believed them. The second kid was turning 1:25!!! Third trackday!! That's why I call him a "shift-class-rider".Smile

    I gave him praise, lots of it, but I also scolded him that he should be on race tires, and really should be on a track bike. We talked a lot that day, and I told him, to learned the easy way. I believed him when he said this was his second or third trackday, because if he was track savvy, nobody would have to tell him to get off street tires.

    Anyway, on to my riding, I diced with Lawdog51 and the other guy all day. Didn't have the speed I had on Sat.. The bike didn't go on auto-pilot. Instead my 600rr, which talks to me, told me I was on my own and for me to show what I got.. Well, I made some good laps, but I wasn't consistant. IMO, I had too many bad laps on Sunday..I noticed anytime I come off the throttle, I lose momentum. On Sat, I was blazing through the pack, and was almost always on the throttle. My form got a little better, not much.. All in all, I had super big fun, and brought it back home safely.

    Crazy about the Jenny track..
