Recent trip to the attic uncovered these pictures taken when the British Scooter Championship came to Knockhill Racing Circuit, Fife, Scotland.

The No 60 sidecar outfit was/is owned by Dave Wyeth, a Clubmate of mine.
The colour scheme puts the date at around 1991, as I passengered him towards the end of 1990 (3 sisters & langbaugh) when the outfit was black with yellow spots. The next season heralded a proper paintjob and a new passenger-Colin Selkirk.
