Lucky, you all get the cool bike color schemes overseas!!
Nice looking photo, nice looking bike, and while it's hard to tell from the angle it looks like you've got good riding form.
Here in the US we call circuit riding "Track Days." I've only done one thus far at Barber Motorsports Park. Not quite as well known overseas as Monza, but hopefully we'll be getting a World Superbike race next year.
I worked at a track day on Saturday, we had 2 time World Superbike champ Doug Polen riding with us (someone hired him as a private instructor). He didn't push it at all, looked like he was enjoying a slow pace and teaching the other guy.

Nice pic. I have my first track day in less than two weeks. I'm excited/scared out of wits at the same time. Can't wait!

I will be at Grattan Raceway in Grand Rapids, Michigan.
It's supposed to be a 'relaxed' track day that is sponsored by my local dealer. We get some instruction, tips, and 5-7 20 minute sessions on the track. I'm hoping to learn and have a blast!
