Or perhaps the Umbrella Girls. ;)wink ;)wink, nudge nudge.

Gotta share this with you. Biker buddy at work is a nice enough guy but sometimes he just doesn't get it.

As an example:  The recent MotoGP race in Qatar was a night event. Hear it can get warm in them there parts. Good ol' Ron was questioning why they needed Umbrella Girls if it was nighttime.

Post up some snaps, Dav. Dig those side car racers.

Well worth the wait, Dav.

Great photos of some truly fantastic motorcycles. Always pleased to see owners "airing out" the classic clubman road racers. Ab fab sidecar rig, too. Thanks [smiley=beer.gif]
