A few more from the Croft Superbike Test...

[GSH]

Just thought i'd add a few of my shots from the British Superbike Championship test at Croft.
I arrived fairly late in the day to find the circuit basking in harsh sunlight from completely the
wrong direction...such is life :rolleyes:

Shane "Shakey" Byrne on one of the Rizla Suzukis that were recovered by Police after being
stolen from the Circuit. The bikes are worth upwards of £200,000 each !

From behind Sir? Ooh, suits you !. Jamie Robinson, a "local" rider from York. He races a Honda in the British Supersport
cup which is one of the Support series for the Suberbikes.

It's been a few weeks since i shot anything and it took a while to get back up to speed. Next weekend is one of Croft's
major events, the British Touring Car Championship, so look forward to lots of Grid girl shots and maybe a car or 2 :lol:

Thanks for looking.

Nicely done Geoff. Hopefully bump into you next weekend.

Cheers,

Simon.

Cracking shots Geoff :D Was the HM Plant Honda team at the track thursday?

[GSH]

Cheers chaps :)

Simon, i'll be at Croft both days of the BTCC meeting, so i'll look out for you.

Kev, funnily enough i looked for the HM Plant team but i didn't see the bikes on the track or the Transporter....i was hoping they'd drag a grid girl or along with them ;)

[KevB]

Surprised HM Plant were not there. I still can't decide between Knockhill and Croft for next week. Why do they have to have the BSB and the BTCC the same week? :(

[Silence]

Easy !! Bikes are sooo much better, more movement, more skill and people sometimes fall off..........;)

Great pictures by the way, what lense did you use ?

Thanks :)

Of the shots posted, all were with the 20D and Canon 100-400L apart from the Team Vivaldi bike, which was the Sigma 120-300 with 2xTC @ 600mm, again on the 20D.
