Olivers Mount - waiting for Guy Martin

What to say about Olivers Mount?

 

It contains a circuit used for motorcycle road races - the only place in England that it is allowed. Some describe it as not being much wider than a path round a park. One thing lots of people say about Olivers Mount is that the late legend Barry Sheene liked racing there, but he thought that the Isle of Man TT Course was too dangerous. Complete respect to anyone who races on either circuit IMHO.

 

This weekend a new legend, Guy Martin, won the Spring Cup.

 

This scene reminded me of my "Waiting for Ago" photo taken at the Isle of Man TT in 2009. Except at the TT it was sunny.
