The Blade
It's the Knockhill round of the British Superbike Championship this weekend, so expect a few bike related blips over the next few days.
The beauty of Knockhill is that you can wander about the paddock and catch a wee glimpse of what goes on behind the scenes.
It interests me that while we're all glued to the action, there are loads of guys & girls in garages, trucks & awnings going about their business of a race meeting.
This guy is Bathams Honda rider Michael Rutter, multiple BSB and TT race winner (yes, another one!)
I watched him ride the 150 yards or so between the circuit office and a sponsors tent.
He was just quietly going about his work, like everyone does every day.
The difference is, he had to pause every few yards to sign autographs & pose for photos (this one included). And he did so with a smile every single time.
That's the best thing about these guys, they are adored by thousands of fans, but they are so down to earth.
Watch out for the bikers on the roads this weekend please folks.
