Found this place on my travels


Located on the Eire side of the border just north of Derry. Muff is by the water and is a very small village. They have a Topp service station and I have been reliably informed by a friend who used to stay nearby that the sponsored signs at the roundabout Topp Muff used to go missing all the time... I wonder why?? 

I didn't venture to the diving school whilst there.

More fun on back wheel by Colvin


Here is Colvin Denholm, yep he is on the track! Colvin has been known to me for a good number of years and has raced as a passenger in the Isle of Man TT in his sidecar days. He is obviously riding solo these days and the well numbered 50 being apt on the day of his birthday.

2 wheels or is it 1???



Now the choice, the beloved speedway in which Berwick Bandits take to the shale every Saturday night at Berwick. 500cc, no brakes and side by side racing. Some thrills and some spills.
The rear wheel action at East Fortune is nice to view, good skill by a lot on that track however the speedway is the winner for me.

Need for speed!!!



Ayton in the Scottish Borders gets woken in style when the Jim Clark Rally comes to town and puts the  road to some good use.

Look into my eyes


Here is one of the birds from the bird of prey experience located in the Scottish Deer Centre. This is the Eagle Owl and was a pleasure to watch and fly.

Here's the Beaver!!



Part of the family found at the Scottish deer centre in July 2012 when I was lucky enough to take part in a raptor flying session. Pictures of that to come soon.
