LODESTAR 2012

What a fantastic event the team put on at Lodestar and I was privileged to have access to the stage area to get those special shots.  Saturday was a busy day with 10 sets, ending with Sir Bob Geldof.  Sunday included 8 sets with mainly female artists.  A fantastic 2 days. See Lodestar 2012 for more images.

Chilling out to the music

Cambridge Bikes

Continuing the theme from London, it was a nice day so I popped into Cambridge for a walk and a few more bikes.

And some enjoyment on the river Cam - not punts this time.

Another fine day out with David and Michael visiting exhibitions and a bit of street photography. I decided to have a go at panning shots of passing cyclists - some workes, some didn't and a load more got deleted!

The Olympic Torch

It's a tough job but somebody has to do it:

Had the opportunity to hold the torch today - what a treat.  Time to get into training before it's too late!

Derby Phoenix Motor Cycle Club, Snetterton

Why is Snetterton always so cold! Ignoring that, a great days racing at Snetterton with a great mix of bikes and sidecars on a damp and slippery track.

Snowy Cambridge

Snowy Cambridge, a set on Flickr.

It was cold but interesting, before the snow melts away. American cemetry was amazing. Ice breaking punts seemed in demand - madness!
