I love the colour of your CR Eric....I have seen the bike in the flesh and it is an absolute stunner.
Candy Topez Orange I think Julie!
I think you are correct Phil...well, I know you are actually 😊. It really is fantastic, I don't think it would suit a standard road bike CB Honda but on a race bike it just looks perfect.

Hello Eric, I was at Mallory and was talking to a chap with a bike very much like yours on the Sunday morning, I think it must have been you  :). You were situated just outside the cafe?... your bike looked (and sounded) awesome !
This is the beastie

A few more photo’s from the paddock area.... some nice Honda’s





Here’s me preparing to go on track.... bit nervous but all went well with the bike, no engine catastrophes


No doubt there was lots of famous faces around the paddock, sadly I don’t recognise them except for this chap

I've got a video of the CR750 on track, but its a big file (27mb) in MP4 format. How do I upload it to the forum?

Great couple of videos Rob👍. The Manx Norton sounded glorious. I'll have to make more of an effort to go next year as it's such a great event.

I agree, It is a great event.. even if you don't go on track, there's plenty to see in the paddock and around the campsite. There was a classic trial going on all day Sat and Sun too.. In the evening there is a nice café, burger bars and a big beer tent with guest speakers and a couple of bands... Its a petrol-heads paradise :-)… We had a ride round the track on our classic Raleigh choppers too, they got plenty of attention. All in all a great weekend!
