H1 50th Anniversary - Festival of 1000 Bikes July 13th-14th

[Kezsam1]

Thank you to the Club members who came to the Festival and to those helped out with the stand.
There were only about 12 or so of us - so there was nowhere near the numbers needed for a Triples track session.
Huge thank you to Farmer John for loaning me his bike for my track session.
It was my first ever track session and then doing it on a bike with an unfamiliar gearbox that I didn't own made it doubly concerning.

I was slow.

As above nick thankyou, it was a fantastic weekend, I to hope the club will be there next year, whatever happens I'll be there, still grinning now

Thanks James, plenty on there

Some cracking photos on here. And well organised to search through.

But there must have been half a dozen professional photographers around the circuit. Have tried Google, but . . . .

Any pointers?

[Olde Coney]

You will have to search through the photos

Done a bit more searching for more professional photos taken at the event, but not much luck apart from Peter Wileman that we already know about.

I did find one other site but with only one triple photo, think it's KawaClive?

There's another Youtube video here;

Not sure who it is, sounds like a LC, but he's cracking on with it.

Looks like James at around 6.00 minutes, and maybe Clive at around 8.0 minutes?

Hi Luke
Not this Clive on the H1a, I was not out in that session but there is lots of footage of one of my brothers on my old red Monster S4
which keeps appearing behind the camera bike. Also part way through my friend Dave Morris is behind on his Buell which he used after his H1a fuel system started leaking.
Great footage, thanks for posting the link.

[Hucklow Tom]

Good find Ian

I'd have said that was me on the H1A going on helmet and that stylish mirror but I was in session 18.

However going off the time stamp on the video and the programme it could be session 18.

I notice there was a Paul Fielding in the programme on a TDR250 and I do recall one passing me like I was stood still

The plot thickens!!

If someone was counting sessions then they may have got it wrong by one - there was no session numbered 13 - it jumped from 12 to 14 (caught a few people out).

[Hucklow Tom]

The superstition thing!

That makes sense,
