500 I.H.R.O. Race




Another scorcher of a push start! I was leading Yves by the first hairpin.
It was a furious pace, just him and me at the front but I was just managing to hold him off.

On the penultimate lap two thirds of the way round I just could not stop at the other chicane and ran on letting Yves passed.
Bu$$er!
I chased back after him but on the last lap, at the first chicane I couldn't get round and the front brake lever caught in a straw bale and threw me off.

Luckily was able to remount and finish.
Steve is just replacing the bent gear lever.
