SPEEDING THROUGH

[FUJI]

I post these for interest ......  I'm not the best, Sports Photographer.

200mm lens on my GX7

I like the grin the leading rider in the second pic is giving me.

The last shot shows just four of the 70  (Yes 70) Motorbike Escorts most of them Police Patrol Officers with sirens goig full tilt.

The Cyclists were rounding the right angle bend at the top of our road at high speed on a very wet road surface....modern racing bike tyres must be very special?

Thanks Brian......But it's the Aviva Women's Tour....Tis a Sheila grinning at me.......I realise I forgot to mention that in this thread.....see the video I posted ( not mine) earlier, there were 70 screaming police and other motorbikes plus a long procession of cars carrying bikes, gear, the media then three ambulances....all extremely noisy.

You've not started sniffing bike saddles again, have you?

You know very well what happened the last time, don't you? The magistrate didn't take kindly and you ended up sharing a cell with that weird bloke who runs the underwear stall on Leamington market.

Sir Korks,

'You are incorrigible ........ You know very well that it was yourself  in court that day, I recall that were also charged with giving a false name and address..

The fact that you wear Lycra underneath your tweeds is well known in Pendle and District.

TOUCHE!     Sir

Cheered me up no end too  Tina ......... It's one of the reasons I do love this forum ... Some real characters frequent this forum   .... 

Fooj... After seeing  Lord K sniffing Beepy's camera strap in the York meeting, I have to admit to being more inclined to believe your side of events  on this occasion 

Smashing  captures of the event ...
