jon, i'm with ya 100%
THEE best, and most safest place to hone your speed skills is on the track, for all the obvious reasons. if there was a local track on kauai, man i'd be all over that sucker...there are just SO many variables that are not under our control on the streets, that i'd have to agree with speedgsx in that the onus of safe road riding falls upon the person at the bars & on the pegs.
..and as moronic as it may sound, i also learned that there IS a time and place to ride 'faster than the average bear'.

but beware if you're not on the track...

that so called "time and place" can vanish in an instant, and what happens next will depend on your where you've placed yourself the moment your track turns back into a public road.
