These guys are mad buggers! They scream around the track and as they go round corners, the one on the side car leans right out to balance the bike! One of the competitors who was the leaner in one race was our lady of the previous shot!
Three good things:
1. None of the guys got hurt.
2. Francie, our lady biker won the prestigious Munro Trophy that our family awards for the biker who most resembles Burt in effort and participation.
3. Hope that the wintery conditions we have experienced will blow themselves out.
@espyetta Burt Munro was John's father and the movie "The Worlds Fastest Indian' was made about him starring Anthony Hopkins, Marybeth! A legend amongst motorbikers
I didn't realise that they were still moving, thought the whole thing had gone over! I knew they lent over low but that is on the ground! Not sure whether Francie should be pleased or insulted LOL ! That track looks rough!
@happypat This track was normally a road - its a Road Race here in a little village in Southland that holds this every year as part of the Burt Munro Challenge, Pat. Francie was in tears winning this trophy!
Great shot, Maggie - but omw... it looks like they took quite a spill! I hope that wintry conditions for you improve too because then I will be on a plane to get out of this tundra!
