I loved this shot, mainly because i took it myself, cheapy camera.
My attempt at an arty action shot that you saw in magazines.
Turned out pretty good.



Oh and this one,

A certain Gary Llewellyn jumping the Dollies at Poole.




And me again at Poole racing out of the last corner just before the triples, i'm in red on the left.




Or me jumping the Dollies after they'd had surgery done to them to reduce their size.

One build a year, the only way to get it right. No rushing involved.

this pic is strange, that the riders are so close together therefore going at approx the same speed, but only one rider is jumping the doubles..


all these pics rule btw.

Great piccys Woody  :daumenhoch:

You rocked back then, 'faster than a long tailed cat in a room full of rockers!'. That prolite was a sweeeet looking bike

The guy in red No. 3737 at Lowestoft is Danny Kerr, an old team mate of mine from BITD, he was doing the starting at the Scotland champs in Glasgow this past Sunday.

Those doubles were considered massive BITD. Most of those riders would be relatively new to the sport and would never have seen or jumped anything anything that big. Things have moved on a bit since then  ;) Gary Llewellyn was one of the greatest riders the UK ever produced, as you can see (where is the emoticon for MASSIVE RESPECT).

Dennis, it looks like you still had the right stuff, who are you beating there? looks like DD Leone, Brent (?) and Scott Clark  :daumenhoch: What's the story behind this one off cruiser foray?

Hey Paul.

No thats not Darren, 128 is Kevin Sykes  ;)

365 is of course the late and great Winnie Wright (RIP) and the guy behind you in the Harp race pants is Neil Dorman


and if I'm not mistaken, on the left hand side underneath Winnies lever its Lemmy from Motorhead! I believe he was playing at Pontins that weekend  :LolLolLolLol:
