A Little Pahrump

A Little Pahrump




All week I've be answering the same question.

Where's Pahrump?

My answer was that it was Northwest of Las Vegas. It is the eastern gateway to Death Valley and the home of all those wonderful brothel's, you know legal pay for sex places!!

Anyway, a bunch of folks from SWR were heading up to Pahrump for a trackday at the killer Spring Mountain facility there in Pahrump and I decided to tag along to hang out, watch and party at night. I originally was going to ride up, but you'll see about that in my next post.

The facility is awesome and the track is even better. All the riders were giving the place rave reviews and I am willing to bet there will be more trips there soon.



Here is the happy group at the end of the day.

Christmas Rocks

Christmas Rocks

The best gifts are the surprise gifts that you never expect. Things
that you think are totally cool, but would never ask for. This year I
got the coolest ever from my wife. Heck, she even gave it to me early
so I could use it at track day. Nothing beats a cool pit vehicle. Now
does it?

Track Day Fun

Track Day Fun


Sometimes riders take it off the street. They do it for a variety of reasons, to go fast, to have bragging rights and then my favorite reason, to practice skills.

Practicing in an environment that is void of other traffic, pedestrians and the police has advantages. Attention still needs to be allocated to road conditions, but since the path is repetitive it certainly is not at the level of normal street riding.

If you ever want to hone your skills, practice in a safe controlled environment such as a Track Day.

I spent Sunday hanging with some friends and support TEAM AZ's track day by providing a tent and chairs for a new rider clinic. Hopefully this will grow in the future, because supporting safe riding is never a bad idea.

Oh, and in case you are wondering, that is One Fuzzy from the SWR Forums railing through the corner!
