Mid-afternoon session from the second day.

- I rode behind Ant (@ducati999) for the first lap so he could get some video of his body position.
- My lines suck. Ignore them. I can be much tighter and use more of the track.
- Also ignore the pit out for a lap in the middle. It had started to rain a bit... just a sun shower, but having never been on slicks I decided that extra caution was warranted.
- Notice that there isn't all that much traffic... that's why I'm still riding in red despite being faster than most. Don't feel frustrated yet, so no need to move up. Soon.
- Watch for those cones... notice how late they appear. You really have to look all the way through the turns.
- You can get a feel for elevation change because at several places you can see the jersey barriers locate at other parts of the track.
