It's cold in Houston this afternoon, but that's OK because the race is inside.
Practice has started and not much to report so far.
This weekend there should be some base jumpers in the show. The building is big enough for it. Also Geoff Aaron is doing his amazing trials show out in the pits. Toyota has a truck proving ground outside where you can drive and climb a hill.
The Leatt Brace topic is picking up steam on message boards by the week. It got a huge boost on line with the Bailey "Stand for Something" video that just about everyone has seen. Weekend Window knows fans are anxious to get some rider reactions, so that's on the agenda for this afternoon after practice. It might be better to wait a week on this one. Not everyone is glued to the internet.
It was truly good to see the Icon sitting up and giving a talk!
The fuel fuss thing isn't so much a race day issue right now. Everyone said what they want to say. The buzz is people are talking and anticipate a resolution.
