Spent the day at a cold and windy Croft Circuit today for the Virgin Media Cup Launch and a sneak preview of the BSB Bikes for this year so here are a few shots from today

Very nice.

Croft's a bit of a trip for the NG boys though!

#5 is a great shot Ian, like it a lot. Where was it taken - Complex or Hawthorns? I take it the guy in the final shot when and dropped the bike in front of the assembled media hordes?

Cheers,

Simon.

Thanks Paul & Simon, #5 was taken at Hawthorns Simon and embarrassingly I posted the wrong photo for #8 (I was tired last night :oops: ) but I've now corrected it. The young gentleman in question picked up his brand new bike along with all the other new riders to the series at 12 o'clock, by 4 o'clock it looked like this :(

He was unhurt and walked away but was a bit worried about what the team boss was going to do to him:-x


Cheers

Bottle of T-Cut and a few cloths etc...

Lovely shots Ian. I'm glad i didn't know about this as i'd have been unbearable at work knowing i couldn't sneak off early :D

I might make the trip to Snetterton for the test weekend at the end of the month, assuming the turn-out will be better than last year.

Nice photos, thanks for sharing.

I like the before and after, for the red Micron Motorcycle. Glad that no one was hurt, but I am sure they can't just walk away from something like that without at least a 'friendly' chat.

Congrats,

I'm hoping to get to Croft at some point over the weekend, possibly for at least a few hours on each day.

I'll keep my eyes open for the usual suspects :)
