Here are some of the pics i took on Thursday during practise. I learned a new photography technique, How to carry a 3 yr old on your shoulders and take photos using a canon 5d mk 2 + bat grip and 100-400mm L one handed (it hurts). Laughing

(no offence to the guy but how geeky could you look)

Great pictures you did very well by the sounds of things, do you have any larger sizes?

Aye , fair play to him for giving it a go, got to have balls to do the NW200 or IOM TT , they are mad.

Yeah very much so, you can quickly see who is on it and who is not. Watching the Dunlop brothers is an example, Michael bounced off the curb on the exit. Thumbs Up

Yeah he looks like he is always on the edge, it was a shame about the oil spill and weather for race day as the first race was good. It was a pity not to see some of the main names this year either (Keith Amor, John McGuinness, Steve Plater) that endurance race kept a few away this year. Would love to see Ryan Farqhuar do well this year.
