so he took me to some scenic roads and then up by mulholland viewpoint we stopped. the view was great i was so pissed that i didn't have a camera. if i only knew this was how my day will turn up, i would have brought a camera.
down the canyon i can see a very nice but not beginner friendly twisty. he(the guy i rode w/) told me that not to take it fast and don't worry if there's other riders behind me.
i let him go ahead so that he won't be bored, i just told him to wait for me at some point.
lot's of hairpin curves... i took it slow, i didn't intend to crash.
i got through it safely. saw some other riders, saw some cool rider hangouts places. it was very fun. i wanna go again, he told me next weekend he'll probably take me again there.
oh and now i can feel that my bike is a beast. i tried reving 1st gear, i stopped only at 7K rpm and my speed was already above 50mph. didn't wanna force it since im just ridng on the streets and not on a highway.
if it's goes like that at 7K, i still have 5K rpm more to push my bike before i reach 12K in which where my power is supposed to drop off.
also, several times at stop lights, i was practicing accelerating hard from stop and boy! i wasn't using my bike's full power but it's super fast already. but i better be careful, i can't afford to get another ticket.
anyway... today was the most fun i had so far on my bike.
i wanna become fast. i need to practice. i want to become a canyon junkie... well either that or trackday junkie.
