Bravo! I can only dream of attending events like that... well done!

Wet is an understatement , there was 47 mm of rain in 7 hours on Saturday , pity as a good days racing was on the cards .
Like the one of Josh brooks , was that taken on Thursday Practise

All Good pics considering tho , hopefully you'll have no bother like that next week at the TT

Thanks,yes the Josh Brookes shot was taken on Thursday practice i was able to get a really good spot thanks to one of the marshalls.

I really hope the weather improves because if its even remotely wet at the TT they wont go out at all

Thanks the conditions were awful so i was pleased with the results

Good shots Martyn, far better than mine. I can't remember the last time I was that wet!!! decent weather gear didn't stand a chance. Just pleased to have escaped with no water damage

I was amazed by the number of people with no coats etc, Madness lol

Aidan

Hats off for getting out there in those conditions liking the wet weather shots

Thanks for the comments guys lets hope the TT has better weather!

Challenging conditions for sure! #2 seems soft, but thanks for sharing these! It's bad enough racing on roads, but add the rain and it takes it to another level. Let's hope for a dry TT.

Thanks Jimil, your right both #2 & #3 are a bit soft.

Im praying for better weather at the TT i cant go through that weather again !
