Answer to that last quiz – easy if you were into Photography back in the day, when you really had to know what you were doing to get a good action pic. – The technique shown was called “Panning” – when the Photographer followed the subject through the movement while clicking the shutter at the correct time. -This creates the impression of speed as the subject is in focus, but the background blurred. of course Harlow would have got that!! (rip) – I was surprised that Brett got it!!! – The rider in that pic was Rolf Tibblin MX Champ – Greg Raybeck from Vancouver Island also replied with a nice bit about his experiences using the “Old fashioned” film cameras. – he also sent us this great shot. – However this was taken on a phone by his son!!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Not sure how many of our bloggers watch “Itchy Boots” – but I find these really interesting , pretty amazing the places that Noraly gets to and very well documented. – neat Yamaha Teneri she rides. which was based on the TT 600. – The latest video shows her visiting (climbing up to) the Great Wall of China.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

=========================================<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Obviously, with most of the riding areas shut down due to the fire hazard – we don’t have a lot to report, and can only hope for lots of rain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As far as we know, the Ymir Trial is still going ahead, as it’s on Private land, but stay tuned for updates- same applies for Ross Rathbones Trials Center- if in doubt phone ahead, but the main thing is to stay out of the bush, until all these fires are brought under control.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here are a few more pics from the Summerland area which is now on fire – some good memories. Note! we have posted these full format to show the nice green scenery, now likely all burned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
