The Place

This was taken at an RAF Odiham trackday in 2007. I was then in the Navy, had taken my road bike on a trackday and was lucky enough to be given a few laps on the back for a charity donation on my behalf. I'd never been on a sidecar at that point and although I didn't have a clue (and held on far too tight!) I got off grinning from ear to ear.

I'd like to thank the anonymous driver and lady passenger for inspiring me to take up passengering a few months later and go on to have the best years of my life allover the UK and Europe......quite how I ended up on grass for four seasons instead of tarmac I don't know!! Still, I'm in the right place now and hopefully I can find a ride on a 'real' sidecar

Rod. On here as sidecar0

My mistake

I'd assume the passenger was probably Shelley?

Thanks Steve. That's actually me on the back in the photo, but it was Shelley there with him on the day.

I could tell it wasn't Shelley I've followed her backside a few times before when I was on with Phil Larder.

haha I wish I could still get into those leathers! Let's just say my backside gives more drive than it used to!!
