Be aware of changing track conditions.

Hi Friends,

A track can change so much from race to race. I was racing at my home track when it rained halfway through the meeting. I had gone out to have a look at the track after my race when a corner marshall pointed out to me that nearly every rider was following one slippery line into a berm. I went out for my next race and took a higher line into the corner that had a lot more traction and made up ground on the riders in front of me every lap by being able to brake later and having a better entry line into the corner. You may not always be able to get right up to the track between races but it pays big dividends to be aware of how the track changes through the day.
