Post by: Landspeed Larry on July 12, 2013, 04:43:14 PM: Bill just ran a mile at 289 MPH !!! The bike has to accelerate so much harder in the shorter distance it becomes much more difficult to ride. I hope everyone understands this is not LSR as you know it. It truly is the twilight zone. Be safe Bill. LSL
Title: Re: Loring
Post by: zrxdean on July 12, 2013, 05:17:17 PM: Amazing. Weather looks perfect in the morning, good luck pal.
