Old and battered on a dusty day.....

Image
....you know when you're just going along....everything's fine....you recognise that there's more than a few miles on the clock, but hey at least everything still works.  Then you take a good hard look and realise that far from being new, its seen better days and some radical maintenance and even an overhaul may be required.....I'm talking about the bike - THE BIKE !!

Not so rugged registration plates

I thought the camouflage on the registration plate was really good, until I realised that half the plate was missing!!

Austin Vince's Film School

Image
Had an enlightening day learning the basics on how to make a short adventure video. There is just so much to know..... But Austin makes it fun and interesting. If you are serious about producing better adventure films YOU MUST DO THIS COURSE. Met lots of enthusiastic, budding film makers who all seemed to know far more than I did, and now armed with the basics feel more confident with filming. Austin runs courses regularly and no doubt I will be back in the autumn for his editing course.  Thank you Austin and fellow course participants - thoroughly enjoyable.

Near Manchester and it's not raining !!

  I stopped for a rest and managed to get this shot. A bit of blue sky thinking .........

TET - UK - The Forest of Bowland

TET - UK - Somewhere in Cheshire

Image
I had some time to spare so took a detour to the TET in Cheshire and spent a fabulous couple of hours on really good tracks. Met a fellow "Tetter" (if that's a even a word), but I failed to ask his name. A really nice chap though - had a Suzuki which looked well loved. All in all, a really good afternoon out.
