My brakes have been at Motorad for two weeks now, and was supposed to have them back by Christmas, but they got bogged down with work so we drove up, anyway here are some photos from the S bend, I have plenty more and will upload those to my web storage at some point soon along with the originals (but they are 2 megs each), if anyone can help with names.

>>I also posted this in one of the side threads but this should be made a generic boxing day thread for all photos so we can just use the one thread...

Both Shirriffs and McEwen were flying. Was impressive to see McEwen going so well after his last stack.
Shirrifs seemed to be in a class of his own. Giving Stroud a going over on his 600 vs the Thou. Great day out though, gutted I only got my cam half way through, missed any Sidecars or Motards.

Racing is not all about displacement and power but how you use it. The 600 is so nimble and free flowing. I was amazed to watch them going over the bride. So much speed. It is also amazing how much speed they can shed. Shirriffs has an amazing future if he keeps that up. I am no racer nor have I ever been, but I know what looks good and his stye is good. Nice pics by the way.

Hi all that went to the Cemetry Circuit

Did they say anything (tribute) to Bruce Bennett. He had raced there at one time. His wife mentioned to us that there was going to be something.

Please let us know and if there is any video/pics

Thanks
