Gurston Down played host to the NHCA and British Hillclimb Championship on Sunday. I've never seen itso busy - which made it difficult to move around and get different angles....
But at least the weather was dry!

Good work Andy, the biker on one wheel is quality, the sidecar shot is great too, crazy blokes.

The good thing about hillclimbing is there's never a shortage of weird and wonderful stuff competing

Love the open-wheler in pic #4 backing it in to the corner.

Great photos (as always) - it was a very busy one there this weekend, and the sheer number of lenses poking out of the crowd was stunning. Was anyone else at Gurston this weekend?

Afraid not... I was away shooting something aquatic. No ducks involved though ;)

What a fine mix of tin you've captured Andy. Colours are spot on.

Whats the deal with the rear end of the mini, is it a twin/rear engined bike jobbie??

its has the cooling mounted in the back and I think has a front facing head with a huge pair of webers (I think)

Likewise. He must have really been giving it stick. Great shots.

that sidecar shot is great especially the look on the driver's face
