Some of the motor bike enthusiasts had expressed an interest in more information about the late Steve Hislop, (1962-2003) whose bike collection cropped up in the Drumlanrig Tower photothread last September, so I've been out and about this morning with the camera.

Here is Steve's statue in Wilton Lodge Park, Hawick.

Steve's helicopter crashed near this lonely spot at Carlenrig, about ten miles south of Hawick.

It was a very windy morning but for once the rain stayed off till lunchtime.

It is better to be shot out of a cannon than squeezed out of a tube. That is why God invented fast motorcycles bubba... HST.

Hopefully he went quick and didn't hear the Song of the Sausage Creature. Thank you for sharing the cool pictures.
