Great pics red98  :thumbup

At least 3 RG500's there!. One in the more unusual black/red/white colour scheme.

Lots of modified Yams too. Especially those TDR 250's! :eek

Bet the aroma was lovely around the Ace today  :b

I always feel a bit sadly nostalgic after looking at performance two-strokes, just knowing that it's gone and these fantastic, fun machines will never be made again.

Looks brilliant though. Next year I'm there.

Wish I'd never sold me 350 powervalve  :(

Ah those far off, heady, pre OPEC oil crisis days when the sun always shone & every young lad was Barry Sheene for the day :lol
There were so many wonderful gas guzzlers tearing down the tarmac leaving the unmistakeable aromatic smell of partially burnt 2-stroke oil in their wake.
No modern brakes,tyres, frames, suspension, electronic controls, but engines that got the heart pounding as the adrenaline kicked in.
What was the cost of petrol you ask? I seem to remember 6 shillings a gallon(or 30p for you youngsters who probably werent even born then!).
Great times indeed!
