How busy is it on Sunday compared to the other days?
Sunday gets pretty busy, but I think its alot less people compared to the first years when MotoGP returned to the states. Also since they added Indy to the schedule, people that would come from the east coast here to watch the races now just go to Indy.

Here is mine. I was on the 101 saturday night heading down to the canery row when the regulator/rectifer gave up. 3rd one in a month. So the bike I built for Laguna was dead! Its like a EV bike now. Charge it up and ride it till it dies.. lol Then charge it again! This is the 1st year I have missed the event. Bummer. But now I have a reason to head to Indy..

Here are some of mine from last year

Lol. I thought it was yours. Forgot yours had fairings with a number on it. Should have looked at the first pic you posted of you riding it.

Shoulda came and said hi. I was flagging on the exit of 4.

Ya, good to see an American taking some action here, but to be honest, Spies is a total dick. He wouldn't even talk to anyone or acknowledge fans afterwards. A dick move in my book considering it's a home race and everyone was cheering for him. Too bad Bostrom dropped out. He wasn't even in last of most of the time.

Here's the video I took. Not that exciting, I know. But you can track the progress of Ben Spies and Casey Stoner and see how far back they were before they passed for their final place. Enjoy.
