Dangerous, if you want me to be a flag marshall again just sing out, I'd be more than happy to help out again.

Sure is, both very nice bikes, though Elsie will look better when the front guard matches the rest of the bike.

Thanks heaps Dangerous for arranging access to the infield for me for the day, it was great. I took 130 photos of the buckets in the morning and 162 of the buckets and BEARS in the afternoon. It was intended as learning experience for me to get practice on fast moving targets, and as such the photo taking improved as the day went on.

I've only sorted through the mornings pics so far, so here's a wee selection. I'll try and get some of the afternoon session up tomorrow night.

How did the welly guys go? At all? Did they leave the pits? The pub???

Yeah saw that, looks like he's back to his old tricks. Iirc, I had a conversation with him last meeting re how he's "never" crashed his bucket it has only been done by some other guy (i think you know him) a couple of times.

Well this is crazy!!!

I'm afraid i don't know who was on what and the video i took was too wide an angle to see anything specific... and the fence pole is in the way...but here... it's 30 seconds of...something (just some bikes on the track actually) from the buckets just before they came in about 11:30am.
Sorry, nothing special, no crashes, just some bikes on part of an s-bend.... at least i know what i need to do if i go out with my camera again (more zoom and a tripod)

Actually had another look, it could be the bigger stuff at 12:30... i don't know, it was very cold and windy, i get confused

I'm getting there... been a tad busy organising a race meet.

Well he took out the worlds fastest side car sprint... now I reckon he gets the worlds fastest bucket to exit off the track, saw it in progress... looked impresive as :2thumbsup

Ahh was wondering who was on Mike's bike, the leathers were too flash & the rider about a foot shorter (& that doesn't mean short).
