    This is a problem I haven't had at UK trackdays ;-)

    Why?  They're there for a reason, and they're cheaper to replace
than footpegs or bellypans!

    As Matt said, watch out for fatigue later in the day.  Especially at 
the end of the day when there's the temptation to go out for "one last
session".  A lot of crashes happen at the end of the day when people are 
more tired than they realise.

    But mainly, have fun!
