One for the 24Hr fans

Post by Bustaspoke »

This video came up on my YT feed,brought back a lot of fond memories :thumbup:


Back in the day as a Bike magazine reader I looked forward to the articles on 'Team Bike' & going to Circuit Paul Ricard was the highlight of the year.

Thanks, it's rare I watch YT but those Bike articles were some of the best I've read in a motorcycling magazine.

What a lovely video - thanks so much for posting that up. Certainly made me think about getting down to Paul Ricard this year. Never done it before, so it's definitely a bucket list kinda thing. And that Casey O'Gorman kid sounds like something else.

I managed to get into the pit garage (legitimately) of the TRT27 Team at the Bol D'or in 2023. Loved it, so different from any other circuit racing.

I'll miss this years LeMans round, as I will be riding around Morocco, but should be at Spa and the Bol D'or rounds with TRT27
