...and then the bikes did thier demos. Here 'Rouge et Noir' the first bike into the 8 seconds (blown 750)on the left with Phil Steele on board, and a blown Hagon Triumph riden by Justin Newell, doing the traditional burn out technique of finding something that doesn't move!! These sounded glorious!!! even with the ear defenders on!!  |

Knew we could rely on you guys for some good photos!
Tony, did you get one of the black Pop sat next to the blue Willys in your first pic? One of my current favourites.
