My mate Robin comes back over to England from his adopted Canada once each year for about two weeks. He normally likes a typical trains, planes, cars or bikes related day or weekend arranged, for some mates bonding & entertainment. Most of us are bikers, so this year, mate Steve Hamilton decided to enter the Bike Fest held at the Prescott Speed Hill Climb. We three other mates were to go & watch him. Steve originally entered his super-fast Kawasaki Ninja H2 SX SE+ (as appears in the event Programme) but sold it, so turned up on his new Honda Goldwing GL1800.
NB. I actually have a film showing the Kawasaki Ninja H2 SX SE at its UK introduction, as my video No. 038; see link at the end of this video.
Never having been to this venue before, I didn’t know what to expect or best vantage points for filming. This is reflected in my initial moans & groans. However, Steve was filmed on both his two runs.
It was a very hot day & my camera was prone to overheating & turning itself off..
There are quite a few errors & omissions in the event’s published Programme e.g. the rider of one of Allen Millyard’s bikes, a man’s name is listed, but the actual rider was a lady (body shape & wearing a pink helmet).
