Ace stuff there Neil. been watching that for the last 30 mins.

Quite surprisingly, it all looks reasonably recent to me still (apart from the cars in the background in the pits areas which suggest the age of the video etc)

Wierd trip eh...

Great stuff!

Caroline alexander always was a poor bike handler wasn't she. Fit though! (purely cardiovascular terms naturally )

brilliant - but is it my PC or are the images really jerky?

 

[Vitorzip]

This makes me think: What happened to David Baker?

Well that puts paid to me doing any work this morning.

Mrs GT is out Friday night, so I'm saving these for then. Once the kids have gone to bed, fire up the laptop, kick back and reminise!

Anyone remember the Grundigs on Eurosport? I never had Sky (and still dont actually ) so used to get a mate to tape it for me on video!
