Finally we have sorted and categorized over 7000 photos from the 2009 Wharf Rat Rally. It has taken a little while but we try to sort the photos so that you can find them easier. There's a lot of info on this page - but taking a couple of minutes to read will help you find your photos faster.

How the photos are organized.
We shot on Friday and Saturday only. No shooting on Sunday this year due to other commitments. You'll notice we have sorted the bikes into these main groups:
1 and 2 Riders on a bike with a windshield
1 and 2 Riders on a bike no windshield
1 and 2 Riders on a bike with a batwing or full touring fairing
Sport bikes - one group with both one and two riders.
SPECIAL GALLERIES: In the Friday galleries you will see two special galleries. One for FEMALE drivers and one FULL FACED and COLOURED helmets. These photos appear in the other galleries as well. Our apologies in advance if we miscatagorized a female driver or male driver, sometimes it's hard to tell under the helmet and gear - and in working on over 7000 photos some mistakes are bound to be made.
For Saturday - we shot over 5000 photos so you will see that there are some sub galleries of the main galleries. For example the 1 Rider with windshield contains a subgallery with FEMALE drivers. Again the photos in the sub gallery are also in the main gallery.
General Tips
USE THE TIME CODE
Each photo is watermarked with a time code. If you were riding with other people it might be faster to find their photos if they're in a small group. For example if you rode a bike with a windshield and were riding with a female rider with no windshield, you might want to start by finding the female rider (smaller group) and noting the time the photo was shot. Then you could go back to the larger group and move quickly until you get to that time code and look for you photos.
MULTIPLE PHOTOS
For most of the time we had two shooters on location. So there is a good chance that we got multiple shots of you. Once you find a shot look ahead a few minutes, you might have been captured by a second photographer. We were never more than 3-4 minutes apart
