There's nothing better than taking a newbie out for a good ride

Nice, fnfalman! Did you at least take her home for some more riding?

She's my PROTEGE, and not a pin cushion. I value my salary too much to eat where I shit.

Slow? Knew I was forgetting something! I think my riding style is more toward the "look-zoooommmm" side



Good job lookin' out for the noobs man!

A couple weeks ago I was on a group ride with some noob chick with three weeks experience... It made me want to slit my wrists, jump on a treadmill, and set my nuts on fire... It's probably different when it's with someone you know and/or like.

If we were lucky, we were all taken under someone's wing at first.

Way to pay it forward!

It wasn't the case when I first started riding and was just dicking around on the streets, because I mostly rode alone (and still do on the streets)...

but the second I started going to the track, ever since then, I have met some of the nicest and coolest down-to-earth folks I've ever met. It's a pretty awesome community. Between track day riders, racers, and guys who own parts/service/paint/etc shops that deal mostly with racers... everyone is nice, everyone wants to help. I think that helped to fuel the addiction.
