Shane sure looked absolutely dandy in that red hat, didn't he? It was a pleasure to shake his hand and be there when he donned the hat for the first time. I've had the pleasure of being at a "hat" ceremony quite a few times -- and I remember each of them -- the smiles, the modesty, the pure unadulterated joy.
As for a production bike going over 200 -- we're looking forward to trying it ourselves at WoS. Stay tuned. . .
