The Panzers first TT

[JAT]

Nightmare journey from home to Heysham, absolutely pissed down for the first 150 miles.
Currently sitting on the ferry eating biscuits and drinking coffee.
Should arrive on the Island at 1800.

Excellent, you're on manoeuvres.

Race day today.
Supersport, Side car and Superstock hopefully.
Currently sitting at the top of Barregarrow, roads close at 1000. Popular spot so I had to get here early.

You want burst mode. Instead of pressing the shutter button, drag it to the left (if holding phone in portrait attitude) and hold it for the duration of the action. You can then select the pic(s) you want to keep.

Capture action shots with Burst mode on your iPhone camera

Use Burst mode on your iPhone camera to take multiple high-speed photos so that you have a range of photos to choose from when capturing a moving subject.

Gaggle sounds far too smiley, surely it should be a Division of Panzers .

An obesity of Panzers

 

[Dukesox]

An obesity of Panzers

You seem fixated on the weight aspect so may I suggest any of the following :-
A corpulent/ heft/ lard / pudgy of Panzers, or my favourite and applicable to all Boxer BMs. A Bingo Wings of BMWs.

 

[Exige]

All of the above

A Billy Bunter of BM’s

[Robarano]

A beauty of Panzers.

A plague more like

 

[JAT]

Watched the sidecars at Barregarrow, the Birchalls are unbeatable at the minute.
The Crowe brothers got a very popular 2nd, they’ll be challenging for wins in a few years.
This is the scene of my accident 12 years ago today, we were moving from Barregarrow to go up to the Mountain to watch the next race.
A French rider on a Mille came over the brow of the hill on the wrong side of the road and hit me head on.

 

[JAT]

The aftermath.

 

[Hugo Magnus]

You are lucky to be around to look back on it.
What became of the French rider?

 

[JAT]

Watched the Superstock race at Sulby Bridge. The bikes are slowing down from the 200 mph Sulby Straight.
One rider couldn’t stop and went off the end of the bridge, no harm done as it’s only a few feet drop.

 

[JAT]

Rutter and Hicky.
