My 2011

[Bigjoe]

With the 2011 racing season over, now we won’t know what to do with ourselves. One of the things I will be doing is going over through my pictures so I thought I would share my year with you. As I normally send some pictures here to RRR.com I will try for the most to show you pictures you will not have seen before.

Joe.

Oops I am showing my age, (senior moment). The weekend before the RDS show there was a charity Nifty 50 race in Mondello.
A lot of top riders turned up to compete against Joe public. A great day for one and all.

A Le Mans type start.

Jack Kennedy #15 heads Jeremy McWilliams #99 into turn 4.

Ryan Farquar rounds turn one.

Scott Redding (Moto 2 front runner) on the outside.

No 50 is still being pursued for suspected armed robbery at the local post office. He passed Farquhar and McWilliams at 150mph down the back straight.
Classic pics Joe. Wouldn't mind a go at that at Bishopscourt.

2011 brought a different WSB event for me. I normally go to Valencia for the European round but this year it changed to Donington Park. Much closer but a lot colder, bring back Valencia.
