So, I took the "Salt Flyer" (or maybe "Salt Liner" fits better?) bike out to the Salt Flats today to spectate the Speed Week Land Speed Racing. If you're a car nut, racing nut, you need to make the trip at least once. If nothing else, for the spectacular street cars (roadsters mostly) that drive around in the pits. I'll let the pictures speak for me, 'cause I'd just hose it up.

awesome pics. i've been wanting to go there for the motorcycle trials for years. this makes me want to do it more.
 
I really enjoyed the pics. Being a salt flat fan from the upper midewest is a bit of a let down as the closest thing like it to us is Snowmobile drags on our frozen lakes. Feel free to post more pics ( hint, hint ) as they are appreciated up here. Cheers
 
One of these days I'll make it up there for speedweek. The last few days though, I have got to see a few of the cars passing through town on their way to and from bonneville.
 
OK, glad everyone is loving the pics. Here's some more to quench your thirst.
