I’m a new member and from Warrington in the far North West:P
I’ve come back to bike race interests a wee bit late in life, but having been to a few meetings this season I think I could become an ‘born again’ addict.
My main interest is photographing the bikes, (and the guys on top of them, of course,) as they zoom past me. All I can say is - please slow down a bit as I miss an awful lot of you - I don’t mean that you are an awful lot - I mean that I am not quite as quick on the uptake as I used to was.
I’ve started a web site of my photos on www.bikepics.org.uk . There are about 1400 pics, there, I think, but, I haven’t counted them so there might be anything up to 1402 or so.
They are all of NW circuits but perhaps you may find them of interest to you.
One little piece of feedback - It might be easier for people to navigate about the pictures if you show a selection of thumbnails first instead of pages of larger images - It loads quicker that way too…
Point taken. I will look into it, but at the moment I wouldn’t have a clue how to go about it.
Nonetheless, I will accept the challenge - it will keep the old brain cells active - or kill them for good.!
Does anyone know how I can import the noises and smells of the bikes as they go round. That’s the only thing I miss as I flick thro’ the images. The smell of Castrol R used to send me into paroxysms of pleasure in days gone by. Does anyone still use it these it these days?
Any road up - as they say round here, thanks for the suggestion.
