Icon20 Rather Proud Of This Picture..

Hi there,

I was cleaning up my HDD and came across this old photo I took at Phillip Island MotoGP 2006. It is basically the two seater Ducati Desmosedici MotoGP bike that Randy Mamola (see here if you don't know who he is), would take around a lucky celebrety. Fantastic is all I can say, wish I could get on the back!

It was Lachlan Murdoch, son of Media Mogul Rupert Murdoch, on the back with him, anyway I snapped this shot and was rather proud coming onto the main straight (Gardner Straight).

Enjoy!

This would probably be another proud day in my life. To ride behind Randy Mamola at the speeds that he has reached. All I would be able to say is, WOW.

Only girls should ride on the back of a bike, IMHO.

Great shot...

Proves you first have to be where the action is if you want to take a great picture. I don't know if I would want to be on the back of that bad boy though.
