Manfield classic bike action

Dad and I popped along to Manfield this morning to check out some of the practice and qualifying for the classic racing tomorrow.  I won't make it to the racing tomorrow but may get a report from the old man later on.

We had a good wander around the pits looking at all the great old machinery and then settled down in a chilly breeze to watch some of the action:

The sidecars were certainly acting pretty serious - those swingers getting out as far as they possibly could...





Plenty of other proper bikes out there too:










This Guzzi sounds great and gets along pretty well too!


And someone discovered how much front grip he had...
