Attaboy Jim!

There's a lot of talk about Calabogie and the abrasive surface. It is very grippy, but biggest issue is (over) loading tires in corners and scrubbing them. You'll understand better when you get there, but you want to avoid excessive scrubbing under load/camber. Smooth is your friend. But when is it not?

LOL as they say.
No way am I camping. A shower and a roof over my head are necessary for optimal performance the next day.
