I'm starting to give second and third thoughts about racing at WoS,
since it'll cost about the above-noted amount just to get out there and
back...assuming prices don't continue to climb daily. As Keith has
noted, even finding fuel might become an issue -- even though we take
the "northern route".
If the Bub's meet runs well -- and that'll be evidenced by some good
speeds -- we'll give more thought to competing at the USFRA
get-together. Otherwise we might just ride out on the Gold Wing and
spectate and volunteer. Heck, even the Gold Wing's gonna cost about a
dime a mile for fuel. . .
World Finals isn't out of the question yet, 'cause maybe by then
there'll be a little more predictability at the fuel pumps.
Anybody else thinking of modifying their race program?
