Hello you lot, I'm Burky the painter!

Born and bred motor sport enthusiast, and like most ex bike racers now more bow legged than the average Joe! ........and it's true, the older I get, the faster I was!!!

What a great year in Moto GP? Formula 1 who??????
<

Actually, that's a little unfair. The F1 was pretty good this year too...at last!
Anyway, just to say hi. No current girlfriend, so I can talk as much Moto GP as I like!!!!!

Welcome David,

Theres quite a few racers here and like yourself ex racers on the board.

What series and bikes were you racing?

I also caught a glimpse of some of your artwork, oil painting is not the easiest to get on with, mightly impressed with the Ross/Gibbers one on that famous last corner at the 05 race at Jerez..

Maybe you could share some in the lounge???

Have fun and enjoy the chat.

Thanks Dazza,
That final turn at Jerez eh? I was standing on the sofa cheering at the telly! I called the painting 'Second's Out, Round One', seems to fit!
More than happy to share my stuff with you, just tell me how, and point me to the lounge!!!!
I've just finished a Schwantzy piece, so I'm interested to hear that he may be on the Isle of Man in 2007. I met Kevin in Laguna this year whilst I was working on the painting, what a nice suprise that was. Anyone want his phone number? Tough!!!! lol

Oh, and Dazza, I was a motocrosser first, then not a bad trials rider. I preferred crashing on dirt, not that it helped much!

Oh, and by the way, somehow I've turned into Burky, email register '.... up' on my part I think!
 


Be sure to post whenever you feel you are needed and just generally get stuck in!! I'm another one who'd love to see your paintings.

Go to the Lounge section, hit the New Topic button...then scroll down where you should see the File Attachment option to load your pictures.

And you can also use the Forum's Gallery section, so you'd have your own album.

Oh and btw, I've seen the pics...wicked!

I dunno, on paper it should've been good, but the racing itself I thought was ...... It's a bit pointless having all the Schumacher vs Alonso hype when they very rarely took each other on on track.

Anyway, welcome to the site mate
