Another foray into the unknown for Chrissy and I today, Motocross is a sport that I haven’t been involved in for a period of 20 years or so, But a colleague of mine is heavily into throwing motorcycles around farmers fields and so as a photo opportunity this wasn’t to be turned down!…….
I have to say that the Worfield Motocross Club (affiliated to the AMCA)made us feel very welcome, the atmosphere is superb, lots of competition, but also loads of humour in evidence too!……..:)
The following photos give a feel for the scene…………
(most of these are worth a click to see full size!…..)
And due to the fact that Chrissy was there I guess she will be posting a pic or too as well!….. you can find them here…….

Really great shots Andy…I especially like the last one…it looks like they’re all going over a hump-back bridge.

Thanks Henry,
Very much the case to be honest!…. they call it a “table top” a steep rise, a level area then a steep drop, timing and speed is critical too slow and you lose time, too fast and you fly too far with the inevitable hard landing……. Could well be the reason for so many spectators standing at this position?….. 🙂
