Slower pace, but lots of traffic on a Saturday. Tried to play with a CBR-1000RR, but I don't think he knew the roads. Lots of redlines today.

Same route as yesterday. More required passing, but lesser pace, since there were no Miata's that wanted to turn up the wick. Eclipsed 60,000 miles. 89 AKI

Thought I was going to go at a slower pace today, but for the canyon portion of it, I took it up to normal pace so a Mazda Miata and I could have some fun. He was the lead of seven Miata's. After I passed him he decided to tail me, which he did, but then he and I left his group for dead. He finally backed off and I lost track of them. Fun ride. Safe pace. Mostly 89 AKI.

Fitted new fuel tank and ran on reserve out to 4.897g out. The pace again was similar to other rides. A little more intense than typical. Mostly 89 & 91 octane due to summer heat.

Taking laps on my favorite road, three in fact. Had to switch to 89 octane due to heat initiated pinging during roll-on passes.

228.2 to res. At my own pace and a few passes. Mostly just having fun without getting too radical. Murphy's Rule winds today. Strong and in both directions. Either fuel was superfuel or RAM air packs it in for better MPG. I've seen that before actually.

High summit laps, redlines, and getting my swerve on. Typical MPG in that past has been ~48, so I don't see why today would have been any different.

First long ride off the season. GSXR dictated pace. I ran 241.9 to empty, he ran about 150 and actually ran out. Had to go back and rescue him by filling up water containers. Lots of slow hairpins and turning around here and there. Stop. Go. Stop. Go. My typical is once the kickstand is up, it stays up until I'm out of fuel.

Absolutely ripping it up today in the canyons with some talented riders. They were quicker, but they tired easily and before too long, the 9R was back out front where she belongs. On the second leg of the journey we returned to our core riders and I maintained the same earlier pace. Where'd everybody go???

After experimenting with a new tune setting where I was running a lightly oiled K&N and fatter jetting, I reverted back to the more powerful 0.8mm and heavily oiled K&N. jn 1 1/4 is retained.

89 octane used at the peak of the heat for the day, but filled with 87 octane at the end of the day. Lots of serious passing and spirited pace from this run. Surprised by the low MPG number really. The speed I was carrying through the corners must not have offset the 7,000 RPM 20MPH corners.
