Island classic

Not strictly vmx but classic all the same. Just got back from the international challenge at the Island. Nothing quite like seeing guys like Cam Donald, John Guinness, Shawn Giles, Lapping the circuit in the 1:38s on classic bikes! Great day out..

I'd love to have a crack on a 500 or 750 2-stroke.
