Classic Racing Motorcycle Club - Pembrey 2014

Post by Zunspec4 »

Hi all,

The Seeley competed in the CRMC races at Pembrey last weekend, the rider being Gary May. I decided it deserved somebody who could actually do it justice. Gary and his dad brought a bit of organisation to the races, almost professional, our pit was well up there.

A good start on the Saturday as Gary won the first two races of the weekend, setting lap records in the class.

Gary is the red bike in the video below from the 3rd race on Sunday.

Unfortunately shortly after he was hit from behind approaching the flat out kink (racing incident, oh well) and the Seeley ended up on top of the tyre wall (both riders OK). All things considered two wins first time out was a pretty good result and the bike is in the process of being fixed (Fairing, Seat, pipes etc.) and hoping to get to the 2nd round at Lydden Hill in May.

Cheers Geoff

Thanks Guys,

The chassis/forks do not appear to be damaged so it is mostly an exercise of replacing the trashed parts. Racing is a hard mistress on the wallet, but hey, it sure is fun :D :D :D

Gary on it. #131
