The annual Greybeards Trial was held in wet weather for the second year running. Persistent drizzle didn't dampen the enthusiasm of riders assembled at Travis's farm in North Loburn. The Greybeards competition is for riders over 40 only, with bonus points awarded the older the rider is. Our oldest rider, Dick, at 78 years easily won the Bob Harris Memorial for B grade riders, while a more youthful Brent won the Harley Cup for A grade. Although not competing, it was good to be joined by a number of younger riders also trying their hand at the sections. Thanks to Peter who set up the BBQ under a tarpaulin, and Dave, Peter, and Christine who set the excellent sections. After the last two Canterbury trials having damp weather, we are hoping for fine conditions next weekend for our last trial of the year. Enjoy the photos

Kawasaki KT250 rider at the 1978 Pedelo Creek 2-Day, Missouri. I wish I could remember his name because he was sure an exceptional rider.
I was lucky enough after alot of arm twisting and scrimping to talk myself into a new camera... Not quite but just about the first shot with the new toy.
A new toy needs some new locations so hopefully will be heading out and about a bit more now. I love the beach, but I've done it to death now.
(taken on one exposure, no additions after the exposure. I use aperture3 as a RAW converter and will adjust levels, saturation, white balance, brightness and some minor cropping if required.)
A trial for something for the future, when I can expect a day with some unbroken sunshine (given the variability of the British weather, could be sometime). The concept is to photograph the shadow over hourly intervals during the day and overlap the end results into one image. Today is a bit hit-and-miss with plenty of cumulus cloud bubbling up to hide the sun at random intervals.
Southern Roadcraft Replica Cobra gathering speed. (The SR was a local Sussex-based manufacturer). The Brighton Speed Trials is the longest-running motorsport event in the world, having run since 1905. It is organised by the Brighton and Hove Motor Club and runs every year in September: www.brightonandhovemotorclub.co.uk/
The event has such a history that it attracts cars from the earliest days of the competition to the latest bike-engined Radicals, Skylines and superbikes. The course used to be a bumpy two-lane, half-mile straight but was reduced to a bumpy single lane, quarter-mile in the seventies. The fastest competitors are doing c.160mph at the end of the straight and the lamposts are all cast iron.
I stopped to photograph this bike which has no saddle and chatted to the young man who owns it. It's a specialised off road trials bike which he had just bought. He said it's pretty hard work in traffic.
