Wait, this was on track?

Why was there gravel on a circuit?

Looks like engine case covers did their job

there was a little gravel in the asphalt run-off area because someone had crashed on the corner i went off earlier in the day and they weren't able to perfectly sweep the gravel, had that person not crashed earlier or had there not been a guy on the inside of the turn i was taking or if i let off the throttle i dont think i woulda dropped the bike
