Not sure that there’s a more picturesque circuit in the UK than this one. The Forth Bridge is just out of shot in the top right hand corner.

I'm totally in Awe Guy, it was hard enough enjoying ourselves in that heat, how you can take such stunning pics in all those locations too, is beyond me:

only one word.....WOW!!
it was hard enough enjoying ourselves in that heat, how you can take such stunning pics in all those locations too, is beyond me:
Thanks folks,
Twas a hot weekend Frank. I think I've lost a few pounds in weight and those hills kept me fit lugging a 400mm around in the (what seems like) Kevlar lined media waistcoat we now have to wear for BSB.
It's a good photographic circuit so it seemed a shame not to get around it all..............about 15 times!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Superb as usual Guy. I assume you will be at WSB? Will have to catch up there...

Mmmm .. tasty!
Did you see the way she strolled up to him after the race and just pushed past everyone to give him a hug and kiss ... while perfectly posed in front of the camera ... ;)
I don't think she's just holding the brolly!!!
She's not shy that one!
