timmythecop Posted September 2, 2011 Author Share Posted September 2, 2011 Please.....Pulease tell me you got some vid footage on the Ring??? there is a total ban on filming at the ring, although guys in cars break that rule a lot. The penalty if caught is a lifetime ban, and I am banned from enough places, so I didn't push the issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And...if you knew this before, couldn't the "spooks' at teh CIA got you some spy camera so we could enjoy your ring footage?!?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timmythecop Posted September 4, 2011 Author Share Posted September 4, 2011 so we could enjoy your ring footage?!?!

This is not necessarily true, as the 'Ring will gladly rent you a GoPro camera with mounts at the entrance to the 'Ring. They have to know that people will use them for their trip around the circuit. I don't remember how much it is to rent, but it's not that much. Now you might get busted if caught using your own devices, but there are plenty of places to mount a camera on a sport bike if you're clever.

V4 Rosso Posted September 6, 2011 Share Posted September 6, 2011 I remember a sign at the entrance to the nordschleife, next to the ticket office, that said that filming is not allowed. Still there are plenty of videos on youtube. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

timmythecop Posted December 10, 2011 Author Share Posted December 10, 2011 I said earlier in this thread that I didnt take photos of Joop's bikes because I didnt want the whole interwebs knowing where all the high priced goodies were being stored. Well, this bike was recently sold for 35,000 euros and it was just one of a large garage full. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V4 Rosso Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 Next time when you're off to do another lap of The Ring give these guys a visit. They have a nice collection of antique motorcycles on the showroom floor, itś almost like a museum. youtube channel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
