PHOTO'S YOU DO NOT WANT TO MISS - Atlantis Sand Fairy Day Course - June 2011 (More photo's added!)
So, Saturday the 25th of June, was a thrilling day for me. Not only did I see some amazing sights, I was able to capture them all on camera. And with me behind a camera - I will miss NOTHING. So be prepared to see some people experiencing.....
Not quite their finest moments.......
However, between all the award-winning tumbles and sprawls, there was no denying it was an adventurous, thrilling and exhilirating day! There were SO many photo's so I have chosen some of my favourite (The rest will be up tomorrow at the Club Meeting - So be there!)
Enjoy the photo's ;)
IN THE BEGINNING

Did we take a little tumble Trevor?

Candid camera indeed!
I was trying to remember why I do not attend these training days...........once I saw Megan's pictures I remembered, all this hard work would kill me!
Very nice Megan - thanks for these awesome pics. They really capture the huge amount of fun we all had. I'm so keen for another one soon.
Where the one of the Tortoise going past you Megs?? 
Pics are awesome, cannot wait to see the rest...
Definately going to be dragging you along, that way i get to ride as well and you can take pics! ;)
Although I'm biased I think you did an amazing job on Saturday - not much got past you and that camera! Are you sure that was me taking a tumble - it could have been Nats???????
Awesome pics Megan, again. 
But why are there no pictures of me on my "new" bike. That's all I've been waiting for all day.
Sian, Nats doesn't close her eyes like that when she falls. And there is the small matter of the large number 9 number 9 number 9 on the front and no Bryan Adams in sight.
Thanks for the amazing photo's Megan, you really got some great action shots.
And Sian unless I was wearing your helmet, goggles and was riding your bike with the 9 on the front, it must have been you.. ..
I see some of our friendly compatriots have already documented the ride on Wilddogs....a few pictures (by the VERY handy with a camera "Michiel")
I hope this adds to the ride report as well!!

Thank you everyone and I had such fun taking them! 
Here is a photo that was requested by Warren:
We shall be seeing him on his very own F800 soon!
Excitement!
Ahem....I owned that tortoise just for the record Johno!
Wow! Looks amazing and loads of fun!! Can i book now for the next one!!!! Great pictures Megan
Oi! Megan! Why no pics of your boots???!!! :-)
Nice photos, thanks.
Would be more then happy to tag along to the next event and be a helper/part time pilot for the guys who need a bit of help in the tricky parts!
