I  live in Florida now and want to know why the riders here are so much faster than the rest of the country...

It must be all those fast guys moving from California to Florida  

[pashnit]

Still here. And stuff like this is still commonplace.

They don't have straight roads 'round here.

[pashnit]

Paradise I tell ya. Paradise.

[pashnit]

Hell, took this couple days ago.... on my way to work - the long way.

[manatrader]

With roads like 36, 96, 1, and 49 wow, can not wait to get back down there and ride them again. Getting to ride them almost year around is what makes the biggest difference, us folks in WA can show you how to do the twisty stuff in the rain, just stay off the paint! Phasnit I need to talk with you, pm sent.

[CorrodedAlien]

... because we can ride all year long....

BUMP

I've been doing WSIR Big Track, Steets, California Speedway and Palomar on a regular basis. My confidence has shot up since I've done track days. It's so much fun coming up the "little Liters" at Palomar and showing them the way, and on a Busa at that.

I'd be willing to bet us Arkansas boys can hang, hell....there aren't but a few straight roads in the whole state here, it's twisty central, it's all we ride! And, much like cali, we can pretty much ride all year long. Another thing, the roads are in such good condition from no freeze-thaw cycle plus, no sand on the roads makes for total confidence. Do scuff marks on the toe protector of my new sidi boots count?

Wow I can't believe this thread still has legs... Awesome!!!

Here's how hard Cali riders ride:

[quikgixx]

Try to get full coverage in Santa Monica, CA 90066.  Averages about $6000.00 per year when I called all the insurance companies.  Insurance in Cali depends on your zip code and can be as bad or worse than Sweden.  Needless to say I only have liability right now.

Here in central Cal My zip 93277, I only pay $600.00 a year for full coverage on my 05 busa! Im also 38 Y.O. with no accidents!well maybe 1 accident oooops!

[CorrodedAlien]

Hmmm... My tire have looked like that coming off a days ride on the street.

The reason California riders are so much better in the twistys than the rest of the country is simple. We're just better, what can we tell you. We have the best looking women, we live in mansions, we have great sex daily, our jobs pay us for 40hrs and we only show up if it rains. What can I say, when you're in California you have it all and look good doin it. Move here and see for yourself.

Cali- Hmmmph! Come to Utah, we'll show you twisties.

[CorrodedAlien]

it's because of this:
