I realize we love bikes here, but i feel it deserves mention that Monjuic Park was voted as one of the ten best F1 circuits of all time by Autosport magazine.

I also have a request.

Could you find a good pic of Kenny Roberts or Barry Sheene crossing railroad tracks at Finlands infamous Imatra 500GP?
