If you aint first, you're last...
Here's some coffee break inspiration for all you riders, straight from the speed bible itself...
1. Little things don't mean a lot - they mean everything
2. Practice does not make perfect - perfect practice makes perfect
3. Losers want to win on Saturday, but not the other six days a week
4. Winners make it happen - Losers let it happen
5. The harder you work, the luckier you become
6. Effort + Concentration + Skill + Dedication = Success
7. Knowledge is Power
8. Knowledge doesnt become power until it is used
9. Knowledge = Power = Performance
10. You can't beat the competition unless you know more
11. The more you know, the faster you go
The key to performance is knowing what is right, what is wrong and how to make it better.

member of team KOTHTony is running a hardtail 1973 xlch sportster. Its light, its fast and it has the overwhelming competitive advantage that if it catches fire and burns there will be lots of people from team KOTH who will enjoy watching it burn because it is a pain in the ass. Providing traction at the back is a 120/90-16 Dunlop K460 from Motorcycle Tyre Warehouse. At $128.50 it is a very affordable way of getting a bike onto a hill. Unlike chains, the tyre is road rated so you don't need to be off the road while you are testing hills (noting on race day you will need to make modifications like no headlights, indicators, glass etc.).
