For some reason I started thinking about this the other day, no idea why.

Anyway, G was racing in the Triumph 675 series in 2007. I seem to remember it was on Motors TV too. Unfortunately he had a rather bad crash, here's the pictures and write up here https://www.triumphtriplechallenge.com/index.php?categoryid=15&p2_articleid=107

Swaffs ( not seen him on here in ages ) took the pictures Shocked

, all were combined to create this.

Hope you don't mind G, it's very interesting. Thumbs Up

Even I had flashbacks of that event, shudder. Wasn't a nice experience watching that from the hairpin.

Reminded me just how lucky everyone involved was in making a full recovery Thumbs Up

Fair play to him still riding though. A lot of people would've quit.

He smashed his leg, and luckily that was about it.

I'm glad I'd left about 30minutes before hand, not sure I coulda handled seeing that.
