Anyone going to Brands this weekend? - SV650.org

I'll probably be propping up the bar in the Kentagon on Saturday night, and hanging out with my camera around Druids on Sunday (hangover and weather permitting).

Anyone else heading in that direction?

Shall i wear a red carnation and carry a copy of The Times?

We are going on Friday to watch the testing

Keith, my many-lenses friend, me and maria are hoping to be there, we're meeting my dad and I'll be running to druids hairpin to get a good spot on the inside and join the others with their long lenses in the Panning Panto (you know, when all the photographers pan around)

However, if the weather is really bad, then my dad won't be going, and I'll be taking a steady trip down to brighton

I hope the forcast for monday is wrong!!!

I'm not sure what sort of weather is best. If it's nice and sunny, all the bikes look great in the photos. But if it's rainy you've got a chance of getting some dramatic pictures of people losing it at Druids, and reflections in the wet track. Maybe showers and sunny spells would be ideal.

I've got the option to doss in my mate's caravan for the weekend since he's marshalling. So I might hang around 'til monday and see who turns up. I wouldn't mind a chat with Messie about AR09 too.

I'm not that scary.

Though there is a rumor that if you stand too close to my dinner it's worth counting your arms and legs afterwards.

Well if the weather turns all wet and yukky you'll have no trouble spotting me. I'll be in my full length Drizabone.

Weather forcast looks promising, sunny intervals so should be able to get some good pictures

Is it the indy circuit this weekend?
