Keep the pictures coming if you can.

Much obliged, from an exhausted Kitten.

What a great event, my first Hill Climb as well, super people, great organisation and loads of great support, a really fun weekend.

Planning for next year already, two inches off the waste and the same off the ride height must be worth another second in my little 912. Watch out Kit I'm on your tail. Well done to Margaret and Jonathan, looking forward to Brendan's report and 2014 Bo'ness Revival.

Also nice show put on by owners club in the Classic display, thanks Robin and all those that participated. Hopefully there are loads of photos out there.
