Thanks Reg, I think the snappy dresser in the grey and red Dianese jacket 9looking away) is me, and my grey bike is in there somewhere too. :) . An excellent weekend!

Cheers

2006 was my first/only weekend at Burton, and thought that it was Steve/Boxered's first also?

(I'm sure I asked that before - but forgot the outcome)
