    I love photos like this one. Reminds me of the helicopter ride I had the chance to take at the Spring Creek Motocross race.

    Keep in mind you can't see squat when you crest the hill into the corkscrew :D

    That must be something at speed.

    Playing Catch Up...
    Ian, the trick with heading into the corkscrew is, as you are always told if you ride a bike or drive a car on the track, is the mantra, "aim for the oak tree", that'll place you in the right spot to drop down into the complex...

    Anyways, I thought I had mentioned that images from the GP are now online, but i guess I didn't. So they are....and my blog has been updated as well.

    Rossi, just after having that little chat with Stoner....

    Eveytime I start kneeling, to take a photo like this of girls, I don't seem to get the same reaction as you? What's your secret?:D

    As usual, stunning photos, I think I'll go throw my camera away now.
