VMCC round 5 feature race - Buckets

**Kendog** · 28th September 2009, 22:05

On Saturday Skunk arranged for a few racers to try out the exciting F4 and F5 (bucket) bikes at lunch time.
To try and avoid everyone getting too excited and wanting to convert to these fine machines, the race was limited to three short laps.

Quote of the day:
"Racing buckets is like bum sex, I am afraid to try it in case I like it"

Getting ready to go (hoping the bike will start) and the race start

The pace was blistering

And the race winner, who impressed Mr A Stroud post race with tales of his 19.3hp machine

that had to be the funniest thing I had seen in a longggggggg time, but sure was pure entertainment ...

Esp Aria getting on her bike late, having to start from pit lane, not knowing the course, watching her get past the pit bike through splash when he had both knees a mile out trying to slow her down ... and then watching her sail around the full course .. just brilliant

btw who was on the pit bike ??

THey told us 'No Rules' i wasnt quite sure how far that stretched, but i decided the risk of dragging mud onto the track wouldn't have been a good idea
