Leicestershire Fire and Rescue Service Triumph Sprint GT 1050 (FG14 NWM)

            2014 Triumph Sprint GT 1050

Static displays at the British Grand Prix are usually abysmal and this year, once again, was no exception to the rule. However, the local constabulary usually attempt to make up for it.

For a few years Northamptonshire Police and the Central Motorway Police Group (CMPG) had a brilliant display of vehicles on show for the spectators. 

Sadly, this year's offering was much smaller than usual but there were still some nice things on show.

Amongst a number of vehicles parked up alongside the old start/finish straight was this Triumph Sprint GT 1050 from Leicestershire Fire Service. Fire engines just aren't what they used to be!

Predominantly a promotional vehicle it is used as a part of the  'Biker Down' initiative that is operated by a number of fire brigades across the country.

The scheme provides free first aid training and offers guidance on how to manage an accident scene involving a motorcycle should you happen upon one.

The bike is, however, equipped with first aid equipment should it come across an emergency incident on the roads.
