April 5-6th Summit roll call!
- Thread starter Otto Man
- Start date
Here's a dumb question, can I drop my trailer next to Otto man on Saturday night and leave it overnight? I have family coming with which ruins the ability to do the bum camp in the back of my trailblazer, so we will be staying at a motel near on Saturday and Sunday night. If I pay them the camping fee would they let me leave the trailer overnight? And Otto Man would you be willing to make sure no one sabatoges me?
Like Rob said, there is never any guarantee against theft, but 99.9% of the time, nothing is going to happen. The last time someone touched my stuff, they came over to push up on the EZ up cover that was starting to sag and collect water. Rather than let it fill up with water and collapse on my bike (and break the EZ up in the process), they were looking out for me. That's the typical attitude you'll see in the paddock. Everyone helps each other.
I'll put my dog on guard duty to watch your trailer. You'll be fine.

I *think* the gates at Summit are open all night, unlike many other places. Can anyone else confirm?

You can absolutely leave your trailer, etc there overnight and there is no camping fee for this. This is what many people do. I'm not saying it cant happen, but the paddock is a pretty friendly and safe place. Other than getting pranked and zip tied into your trailer
There is apparently some guy who leaves his trailer there stashed year round and no one has ever said anything... what a way to save on storage fees.
Riding in the rain is actually one of the best ways to work on your riding. Slow your pace WAY down, focus on smooth inputs and mechanics. Body position, hitting your apexes, keeping your eyes scanning... You really just need to get it into your head that grip is low and that pace is not what you should be focused on. For me the biggest deterrent to riding in the rain is when it's cold. I can deal with the cold or the rain, but not both at the same time. Hopefully if it does rain the temps will be up enough to at least get some quality laps in.

Uh Oh! You said the "R" word! You realize that automatically volunteers you to bring no less than a case of beer to share with your paddock mates.
The "R" Word is VERY VERY bad....never mention the "R" word before an event.
Personally, I hope it's clear and in the mid to upper 60's. Track's dry and clear and fun for you all.
I have Easter Time with Alex on Sunday, and I have to work on Monday. I'll be there in May.

Sorry to hear Kevin. Was looking forward to catching up. Get well soon!
Yeah, he was using the "R" word pretty loosely.

Collin Blandford with Shagmoto will be there. He's got some Pirelli slicks waiting for me - can't wait, I've only ever ridden DOTs!

Awesome, bike currently has slicks on it, and I don't have warmers yet. Guess I'll be getting new tires this weekend!
