Last Race of Year.
« on: October 07, 2013, 12:26:48 PM »
Last race of the year for us at week end , great racing, great weather 5 races with no problems than a run out into the corn field up at East Fortune circuit in sunny Scotland.
I tried to out brake a bike who had a disc on and im afraid the disc won hence my excursion into the corn field at the end of railway straight  !!!!!!!

I hope you had a good season. Great pictures, looked like close racing for sure. A little sight see in the corn isn't too bad.

Any changes planned in the off-season?

Well done and congratulations to Frank (aka 'Frankie the  frog' , due to his lightning jump starts  :) ) on winning the North East Motorcycle

 Club 500cc Classic championship.
Terrific effort put in by Frank in travelling to England for each round, especially at the last round when Frank was in a great deal of pain from injuries he sustained 3 weeks earlier in a racing crash in Holland, but his determination won the day despite the efforts of 'Col the snail' and 'steady Dave' .
Frank, it was a pleasure to watch and EVERYBODY was so pleased for you....   

Hope to see you and more of the Dutch lads next year.

Well done Frank and Stoker's.
After watching you blokes getting around PI a couple of years ago it doesn't surprise me in the least.

Cheers,
Brian
