Default Two wheel action

Some pictures of today's bike action at Croft race circuit. I will refrain from posting a picture of a fellow member chimping, plus another bike accident, and concentrate on the racing...... unless you ask nicely of course.

Here we go...

Let's save tyre wear on the front:


Taken with my 1D (MK-I) and 100-400L (who says it isn't sharp):


Get those knees down:


Catch me if you can:


Looking good ma:


Hope you like them. Back there again tomorrow for more fun.

Ken, I so look forward to your posts. I love the way you get inside their helmets. You are one of the fortunate ones who loves his vocation.
Please, pretty please, the chimp & the wreck.

Nice shots Ken

Not bothered about the stacked bike, but lets have the chimper, that is always good sport.

I'll ask his permission. The problem is, he may catch me at it tomorrow. I had better wear my dark glasses and turned up collar.


Here is another racing shot, just to keep the suspense going:

Oh no - caught once again!! I can also swing from the trees quite well. Can't make it back to Croft today unfortunately, so you'll be safe Kenny....for now!

Anyway, here's a couple from me.







Cheers,

Simon.
