1st pic was taken by another retrobike friend right after a downhill race at our annual retrobike meeting. Came in 2nd last year with the yellow Ultimate and finally wanted to take down the win; it worked and the Merlin and I won - by the blink of an eye :LOL:
2nd pic was shot by another retrobike friend during that particular downhill race; That´s the two of us in action during our winning run.
