Repeat of sunday's show.

I went to Bonneville in the summer with one of the 6 bike teams. We got cut though, for some reason :evil:

But either way, it's a good watch....

We are all going back in 2014 for another go and hopefully have a bit more success second time around :D

Yes it was brilliant! Its a really wierd place, nothing can prepare you for what it's like there. Watching it on the TV really doesn't really give you the scale of the place, or the hostility. It's one of the worst places to try and run speed records, for every reason other than there is nothing to hit!

We started off in LA, spent a week or so there, picked the bikes up, drove to Wendover, 10days of speedweek, then back to LA for another week.

Here's a few of my pics
