What a fab race. A few of us rode up and what an easy ride it was after all.

Stopped twice on way to rest and fuel. Hour riding = 80 odd miles fill tank and break for half hour. Bit of "P".

Deffo riding again next year espcially after seeing all that traffic trying to leave.

Bumped into Georgie-D at second stop. You looked like crap mate and i thought i was the one who hadn't slept. :lol: Could tell you just woke up :roll:

Heres some pics of day. Not great

Banditdave who led the way

Someone we bumped into at services who rode from St Austell with a pillion. Rode up with us. Bike is a bit out dated now. Needs a respray


Image
Right where did i put the bike??

Image
Rossi doing what he does best


Got these next ones by invading the circuit then having to beat the marshalls to let us back to our spots. Nearly started a riot was fab

Got loads but need to edit a few. Not very good with these new cameras and plus i am still learning to get themm onto site. Quality not great but will see what i can do.

Awesome... 8)

Sorry though Mark...I know you say that is 'Deffo' a knee slider... :?

It's a hat...He had so much trouble getting the knee slider off that he binned that idea and chucked the hat... :wink:

Wish I had gone with you...My head hurts... :cry: :roll:
Please help...

Was a brilliant day.....first time up on the bike! Will be doing it all again next year. The racing was excellent...you have just got to love Rossi!

The blisters from the bike boots and the 3 hours it took to go 100 miles back were the only drawbacks!!!!
