If possible. There is actually a slim chance that I will be able to ride endurance in Round 5, but more likely I will just be the lap recorder / umbrella girl.

Umbrella girl? I thought it was your FINGER that was amputated?
LOL Just kidding.

I took mine this year to watch me race at the Shannonville endurance round while riding the 250, she said "that does not look that dangerous"....... StrategyYour teamates and I talked at length over dinner Sat about your wife situation.
I think she may be disenchanted with motorcycle crashes because she sees them on TV and reads about them in the paper.
Let's be realistic- How many SOAR crashes happened this yr? 100? 150?....200?
How many people got up and walked away, often to rejoin the race or race a half hr later?80%...more...90%...at least.
Now let's take street crashes....what percentage get up and walk away?
Nothing close to 80 or 90%. What she doesn't realize is that there is no safer place to ride a motorcycle than a racing venue.
Because your wife hasn't come and watched, and spent time at the track, she has a preconceived notion of how a motorcycle crash starts and ends. We both know she is wrong, you just need to show her that.
Congrats on a successful season, and looking forward to more dicing with the Prairie Dogs next yr.
ATTS brought his wife to the last round to convince her he needed a toyhauler with a furnace. Strategy!I took mine this year to watch me race at the Shannonville endurance round while riding the 250, she said "that does not look that dangerous"....... Strategy
I thought i saw him out riding on Saturday with the PDR bike, so i guess his wife has now accepted the gospel of motorcycle racing.
Reading this makes me realize just how awesome my wife is. She walked into the garage to see my freshly built 08 Gsxr 1000 motor and said, "well that looks like $4200 well spent, when are you taking out the zx10 motor?"
Half the paddock is punching above their weight it seems.
She is way outta my league- just don't tell her that.
Mine is too lol
