I will add more when I get time... nothing super flash camera wise

More would be good, as you mentioned. I couldn't make it so it's nice to see someone put up some images.

I took 300 round figures. (could have taken a heap more but had to head for shade at times...Faaarkin hot)... so have one or two more that are worth posting

A couple more that I have missed from photobucket





I will chuck some more up in a day or two when I find time to sort them..... riding tonight if all goes to plan

Crowds look like about half of when I last went.

You must have an awesome camera or be very skilled. They are great photos.

Fat for grip Al...

so. Did you actually move from the top hairpin?
Mes prefers the inside. Some good pics to be had on the back straight dip and chicane in the middle. The tards mucho. Unfortunately my pc has gone jew. Had a mean snap of a flock of tards, lining up, leaning, leg out and coming off it.
Les sigh.

A few more pics, Been a while since I used this camera so some are not sharp at all, I did a quick loop of the track looking for good spots and snapped a few pics while looking , set up at the hair pin for a bit then moved off to setup else where but the pin was pulled. Some are cropped and there may be some double ups but its getting late... but still wide awake...draw backs of evening rides down SH22 to Waingaro...



































If I had time to spare I would play with the lighting as plenty need it, Some spots I was looking forward to zooming in on the action but Damn it I didn't get beck while they were still racing, next time

Just a basic Canon EOS450 with Tamron 18-270 lens, would love to get a new high spec one

Fantastic to see Eric Bone (Kawasaki H2 number 23) still out riding. By my reckoning he must be in his 70s and still competes regularly. Outstanding.

[Mike.Gayner]

Great photos, thanks.

[Banditbandit]

Great photos, thanks.

+1 (and then 10 chars)

Same with Bob Grover. He's been retirement age for longer than I've been racing but he's still out there doing it. Has to use rollers to start the bike and has a stool that he stands on to get onto the bike but he's still going.

Those that were racing, whats your number I may have other pics not posted ... more of the same sort of thing just not going to post them all unless someone wants a particular bike in the pic, I can email pics if you want larger to do something with (Not selling pics... give away) I think they are around 5mb and with a bit of playing (your end I dont have the time) they could be better
