After looking at numbers, mainly bank account ones, and the fact my front wheel bearings need to be r and r'ed, I pulled the plug on this years event. Nothing like waiting 365 days to stay home, first time in over 12 years I wont be there. Things I will miss below...
1. Greg Wood's last Laguna Seca race, he is retiring from wrenching on bike #11 and touring in general.
2. Ben Spies last ride on the #11 Yamaha, he too is retiring, maybe because Greg is?
3. Casey Stoners last ride at Laguna Seca, he too is retiring.
4. McDonald's in Salinas, I like grabbing dinner on the way home here, I can see the hills where the race track is and I eat there thinking what it would be like to live there.
5. First year of the 990cc bikes being back in the sport, true beasts these are.
