That Terapin Awning

  The hawk eyed among you will have spotted a rather snazzy awning in some of my earlier photographs and; yes it did come with the van. Maybe it was time to throw it up and see if was all there or not. Having recently tested the Fiammi awning at Cadwell park with the Honda VFR750 and Yamaha RD250 taking shelter underneath it, I thought it was high time I gave the proper awning a go. Well it was that or study so was a tough choice. The awning is by  Terapin  who make awnings and gazebos for events and major motorsports teams around the world. Clearly most suitable for someone with my racing pedigree. It is massive and I was not convinced that it was all there so a test pitch was well worth while. I spent bloody hours figuring it out (no instructions) but now I have it down I thought I would share a few stage photographs in part to help anyone else trying to tackle a pile of parts and to remind me next time I try to pitch this monster.   Process First up lay everything
