Just a few of the shots I got from Olivers Mount at the weekend. Just acquired a telephoto lens so its my first go of a DSLR with motorsport.

If anyone on here has any specific requests (you might have been racing in the minitwins) then let me know and I'll see what I've got.

Looks like the bike in the 3rd pic had a real good chatter going on there!

When backing it in just isn't good enough -there's always bouncing it in :)

Great pics btw.

Wow that road is narrow!!! Not much room for mistakes then, especially when the barriers are made of wood!!!

Great photo of the guy backing it in, bet he would love to have that.

Unfortunately not Pete, I was down at the jumps and I believe the accident was somewhere before the hairpin. Was he alright?
