And yes, sumo is friggin’ fun as hell. I’ve started riding my DR-Z at PGP, and while that DR-Z is certainly no true sumo race bike, it’s close enough that I can still have a blast. Supermoto is a whole different (and very fun) ball game from the road course stuff. A lot cheaper too!

Used to have 2000+ acres of forrest/farm land with powerlines to ride freely without hassle, now developers have changed 2/3 of it to office complex and Holiday Inn Express… still enough room to ride the dirt bike and get a decent workout.
