Austin Munk... what a cracking name that is ;)

The on bike footage starts around 3.45.. not sure about the bit tacked on the end though?

Pause it @ 56 secs in. Is that Valentino Rossi's grandad with his leg out? :chuckle:

And I think Cadwells not for the faint hearted these days or is it just the old film that makes it look worse....

Sudden jump in circuit and country at the end to Spa Francorchamps, not sure as I haven't been there since I was but a boy but isn't that the old pre-78 circuit??

Dunno.....but I don't remember X-lite helmets being available pre '78, though I could be mistaken.
And is the wearer Ago ?

Great footage. Thanks, GT.

Yes the track at the end is Spa. According to the Nolan website X-lite started in 1998. So the footage must be reasonably recent.

Loved the chin rest on the tank :)

He was actually trying to stop his fags blowing away in the slipstream

I'm guessing it was a packet of 20 Old Gold

......Cadwell Park

All being well on 'Bella' on the 6th and 7th May 2012 with the CRMC (check out the rest of the provisional calendar for 2012 at www.crmc.co.uk)

There'll be lots of old and interesting bikes including lots of Ducatis so why not pop along for something a little different and maybe meet 'Bella' too?
