watchin' you
i went up to Knockhill today to get a couple of pics of my eldest as passenger on a sidecar. i was bricking myself just watching him:(, after 3 laps he came back smiling like a loony, so just had to have a wee go mysel.As we entered the pits, track officials stopped us as the sidecar in front had just lost his passenger:eek:, i was just about running home from there:o,anyway, track cleared after 10 mins and we set off, thought he was just about to take off when he threw out the anchors for Duffus dip, throw the leg out for left hander then throw weight over the bike for right hander:eek:.into the chicane:blast, didn't know what the feck was happening up the straight( head was snugly up my erse),into the hairpin, rear end spins on exit:eek:, tuck in and hold on again (mentally saying goodbye to loved ones),and before i knew it anchors out again for Duffus. 3 laps and came out smiling like a loony:D.no pics of me yet but some i took of me boy.
BTW it's the Jock Taylor meeting this weekend and you can have 2 laps for 20 quid for charidee, you wont regret it( well maybe the guy in front of me did:rolleyes:)

Bleeding heck! Theres nothing left of the poor guy that fell off except his boots. Thats some crash. :D

Not sure I'd be as brave as you, I don't make a very good passenger, too many years sat at the front to let someone else scare me to death.
