hey my arm and leg/bike sneaked into that one. initially i thought it was my pic but as i'm in it - who shot that one?Scott_rider wrote:This is always my favourite dirt bike photo...
On 'The Gap' road in Wales in about 2005 just before it was closed permanently to traffic. That's me in the black jacket sitting on my old KTM 400. You can just see a small 'v' shape in the ridge of the mountains which is the actual gap that the road goes through, about 5cm directly left of my head in the shot.

Re: Your Single Most Precious Biking Photo
I had a red and white 250LC before this 350 and then another blue and white 250LC afterwards. The first 250 and this 350 were stolen within 6 months of each other and, when I sold the blue and white one to my sister, one of her friends wrote it off! I wish I still had at least one of them!vacant_space wrote:Nice looking bike mate!

I had the 250 air cooled predecessor, had to wait another couple of years before I had a real radiator on my DTR

Hi RBJ, I think it was taken by either Zulu (whatever happened to him?) or Pistol Pete?redbikejohn wrote:hey my arm and leg/bike sneaked into that one. initially i thought it was my pic but as i'm in it - who shot that one?Scott_rider wrote:This is always my favourite dirt bike photo...
