If in doubt, or it doesn't seem to fit elsewhere - put it here.

Here is a video of the 2015 Turkey run.
I tired to follow people as much as I could to take vids...
Followed Doug quite a distance.

Looks like great fun. Not sure I would even last one lap though.

I always like talking to people I only see once a year.

Trails are very easy- but still lots of fun.

I did about 40-50 miles today -and a LOT more tired!
(Blyn, then to Burnt hill and back)

Don said he was behind you for a while and you picked the best all the good lines.

With the amount of suspension I have I always look for the smoothest lines!
Turning tightly and quickly isn't a problem.

It was funny to watch guys in front of me bouncing and sliding all over, charging into corners and brake sliding-- while I was going the same speed just rolling along smoothly.

I am still working on keeping good balance, light grip, knees out (not gripping bike) and letting the bike do the work.
