Motocross stag do

Had a fantastic weekend on Andy Riley's stag do down in Devon, a very old school event with all but the family members having been at Hatfield.   I would like to say that motocross is like riding a bike, but unfortunately the 13 years since the last time that I had sat on a 125 cc motorbike was sufficient time for my body/ co-ordination to have completely gone.  I still remembered how to change gear etc, but my first few laps of the training track can only be described as "tentative".

What did amaze me was was that of the 8 people that had never really ridden a bike before, we were all on the main track after 3 practice sessions.

Pretty sure that the picture above is one of the pics that I took with Cleggy's camera and looking further into his Flikr set I found the one below, and I can't claim to have taken it as it's me!
