Motorcycle Trackday at Snetterton

I think I'm finally getting the hang of this thing. Trackday was cut short due to snow. cc appreciated

I think you deserve a very large medal for braving Snett today Ogre, with the wind chill it must have been like the Arctic !!!! Personally I think your car shots from last week were a better set. Sorry to wee on your fireworks, but I still think the medal is deserved. Last weeks were probably sharper because you were not shaking with cold !!

Yeah, it was definitely a little chilly out there. Stupid snow. These were not sharpened at all. Pretty much straight out of the camera. Maybe that has something to do with it. Ah well. I was wearing quite a few layers to keep warm.

Hi Ogre. nice set. i too was at Snetterton yesterday (just seen your other thread). it was bloody freezing yesterday but i got some fairly good shots for my first attempt. I'll set a thread up as soon as i've had a chance to sort through them all.

awesome Big A. can't wait to see em.

Yes Ogre thats what they needed, They just lacked that crispness. Believe me it will easier in a T shirt come March !! Ha Ha

Photos have been sharpened. Hopefully they look a little better now. I think they were soft cause I was using my 1.4x with my 100-400.

Restyles, come march, I won't be taking many pictures. I'll be out there on the track with my bike. I almost went today, but opted not to cause it was too cold.

Mount the 1D Mk2 on your helmet ... now there's a challenge !!

Ha! I don't think I could ride, aim and somehow fire off the shutter all at the same time. But it would be a challenge.

what was the tempature out there that day?

Cool photos. You should clean your sensor though

I totally cleaned my sensor right before i went to shoot! Guess not good enough. Ah well. And as far as the temp, it was snowing about half the day. So I'm going to say, cold. I was wearing many layers and a face mask and a beenie.

Nice shots but let down by the dust spots. Shame

What kinda bike is this?

Why is this exhaust so small? That much restriction on a class? Anyone? Great pics btw.
