OMG - did you read the comments on that video? Handbags at dawn http://nl.youtube.com/watch?v=fZMPDCNyQxE
Unbelievably good recording of that engine though. Sensational sound and how quickly it climbs the rev counter!

Lovely pictures there, must have been a good jolly out
It was, I can recommend Nick Mason's B'lieu garaged collection. The Ace is a must. Good to meet a few PH friends. I forgot to mention Gary aka Focussed, great guy that. We talked for a good few mins!On with the cars:
Great Lotus F1 display.
No museum without a proper Bug.
Dunno what this is but it looked tasty. Badge says Riley . . .
The bikes:
Mike Hailwoods champ bike: revvy Honda 250. Privateer Mike won before factory racer Redman. We all know how glorious this machine sounds me thinks. Search on YT and drool.
Norton stampede is another class.
Lovely big pots.
Naked bike in optima forma.
Next: Traction Avants.
:cough:
. . . before the last of the bikes:
Big fourpot. Love that shifter!
Big twin. No brakes!
Big . . . WTF is this?!
Back in the days ornaments were everything.
The TA posse had quite a few of them, well, everywhere.
This pretty bunch - French drivers and a retired Dutch couple living in the Dordogne: retired at 53! HF those marine guys are real men. - made a huge trip every year. They've been as far as Marocco with these 32 hp stunners.
A kind of FB5K for old folks
OMG I wished! Feck speed for that matter . . .
Pretty innit?
My 7 year old girl got a cam for her birthday - pocket 8mpx Olympus - and asked: I'm going to snap pretty cars just like you.
I was shocked because it's my youngest that likes the smell of fuel. We'll see what happends.
Done. Untill the next event mates, cheers!
