FIM Motorcycle Endurance World Champs

We went to watch the World Champs Endurance Motorcycle racing at Losail Circuit


Nick in a hurry to get inside

All the media



Pit Lane 

The podium (we did not stay long enough to watch the awards - it was and 8 hr race- as we went to the tennis afterwards)


Pit Stop

You could get real close to the action - but this is the only place on the whole track that you can sit - and there are no TV screens so you can't see what is going on anywhere on the track.  But it was good to see - and man they go so fast.

Getting ready to race - they run to the bikes in an endurance race (I did not know this)
