New to forum in Florida

Hello Fellow Forum Members,

Have a 2012 Panigale S with ABS. Finding it very different than my 1198SP.

Riding in Central Florida at present.
Almost always down for new roads and riding.

Planning on some trackdays soon to improve my rather weak skills.
I may have met some of you at Jennings on September 30.

Congrats and welcome!

Welcome RBD! I'm on the coast just north of West Palm, and do a lot of riding in the farmlands around the big lake. Always looking for a ride so if you get down my way shoot a message. I'm on an 1199 Standard.

Thanks for the welcome.

Plans for Jennings in the next month.

Hopefully get to PBIR in the next few months. Never been there. How is PBIR?

I haven't been on a track yet but am anxious to try it. The farm roads around Stuart are safe and desolate but not nearly clear enough to "let the big dog eat". I'm looking to get on a track, probably PBIR, in the next few months. If you go please post your impressions. Thanks in advance and happy riding!

Hey Hogdog.

I'll post up impressions if I get to PBIR.

Track days are great fun. Kind of a chore for me as I am not close to any road courses.

I'm quite a bit west of Stuart. We have farm roads around my neck of the woods, too. We do have some areas to let it run, however!

Welcome to the forum.

I missed the Melillimoto track day last month due to some surgery, but I've got my spot booked for the end of November. My guess is that's the one your referring to?

Hello SOULRIDER.

Thanks for the welcome.

Hope you're healing well following surgery.

Yes, I am referring to Melillimoto's event. Hopefully, I will be able to attend.

I went to the event in September and had a great time trying to learn my Panigale. I find it very different than the other Ducs.
