With all the racing over here are a few of my shots from a fortnight of sunshine and fast bikes. Comments, as always, welcome.

1. Ian Hutchinson with his scary helmet design

8. Maybe it's because the driver makes the sidecar do this occasionally

Thanks for viewing. Only 350 days before it all starts again.

Some really nice shots IMO. Wish I could make it to something like that. Thanks for sharing.


If you are going to walk on thin ice you might as well dance!

Brilliant shots,#6 is my fave, but I think it would look better without the bit of greenery on the right.

Cheers guys. Was at a new (to me) location "Keppel Gate" when I got 6 & 7 and unsurprisingly wasn't too busy (you get locked in from 9:30 to 17:00 on race days).

Steve, you may well be right will look at giving no.6 a trim tonight.

#5 is pretty cool. Gives the viewer a bit of perspective.

Andy : Hutchy had a hand in the design of his helmet. Took me a few seconds to work out what it was the first time I saw it.

Haleiwa_Brando : Yep, threw #5 in to show that this isn't some purpose built race track.

And for those that liked #6 and #7 here are a few more:

Crawford,
You have done brilliantly on some of these,and well on most.
The tops of hill shots are terrific ,7 ,the sidecar shot is awesome,and 3 and 6 are terrific.
The second bunch are really good,2 would be my pick for the look on the riders face.
Very good set.
