Default Oulton Park - Bemsee

Took my new camera for it's first outing at the Bemsee meet at Oulton Park today. Awesome weather has brought a little sunburn, but was an excellent day. Some pics below, not brilliant by any means, but used today as a trial and error session with the cam:

Great pics!
In the penultimate pic though, does it not look like the guy (orange and black bike, white n black leathers) look like he is about to go head first into that barrier?!

It does, I hadn't noticed . They were taking a funny line through there after a SV blew it's engine and left oil on about 300 metres of the racing line. Was carnage as 5 or 6 bikes following all highsided on it

And there i was thinking i must have been doing something wrong when taking corners trying to avoid head first collisions if the racers do it

Am surprised race wasnt halted if that many riders had big spills

It was red flagged and the next race was aborted after 2 sighting laps so they brought forward the lunch break to clear the oil. They had blowers out to blow away some of the cement dust stuff
