Took this yesterday. Don't mind the helmets I was too into getting the shot then actually setting it up lol. But I think I found a location to do my "shoot" with for the GP.



little farther back

I was thinking Hercman wear pink helmet until he mentioned his wife videotape it. You don't need gps for that. I never use it and I use old paper map which they are cheapest and never got lost. That's just me.

Where I was isn't labled on the paper map wink I use the GPS more as a back up. Plus it's easier to glance at then a map while riding. smile

The turns were all in the 20s the straights into the upper 30s. The extreme leans are as far as my bike will lean without dragging the floor boards. That tends to frighten the passengers plus you never know when the floor board won't flex and the rear end gets kicked into the air and then have the fun really start.

Does your other bike have blue in that design? I remember seeing pics with blue.

I understand for gps over paper map. If you are on motorcycle then gps is good to go for easy view. I can't imagine if you look paper map in middle of bike riding. I bet this paper flew out of your hand. lol

nice shots!...I went up to Richmond the other day scoping locations for good urban backdrop for my car. I found a lot of the same thing like you had in your second pic...if you drop back far enough to get a big background then you lose the car as the central theme...this is gonna take some doin laugh but it sure is fun thumbsup
