TAKIN' OFF!

It's Moto America weekend at Road America.  Motorcycles beaucoup...a real motorhead weekend.

Today was mostly practice and qualifying rounds.  Here, Gus Rodio, Hammond NJ, riding in the Belissimoto Twins Cup, celebrates his #1 standing with a wheelie on his Aprilia RS 660 in the back stretch called "The Bend."  Rodio dominated both races at Daytona and he's well on his way to dominating here at Road America.

EXTRA: One more shot of the Belissimoto Twins Cup qualifying round. Romeo Chiavini, Monte Carlo, Monaco, also riding an Aprilia RS 660, is smoking past an unidentified rider on the back stretch of the track.  I looked on the entry list for #361 but he/she is not listed.
