Hey hudu,I think its further north than Leeds, but about Yeadon, is this the track you mean? http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?f=q&hl=en&geocode=&q=Yeadon&ie=UTF8&ll=53.870709,-1.674439&spn=0.001161,0.002288&t=h&z=19The location looks familiar but I think the layout was different BITD. I remember racing Woody at a regional in 89 and putting a block pass on him in the last berm to win, I'm thinking it could have been here The track I remember had a 90 deg left hand first berm followed by a big table top then 180 left berm into long curving slightly uphill straight then 180 right hand berm, followed by doubles just before the last 180 left berm and the finish line. Back to the mystery track, could it be at Barnard Castle? It looks like it could be next to a church yard, I think those could be yew trees behind the stone wall.Oh yes, the Powerlite rider on the start hill is Darren Kirkbride.

And your memory of the track layout bitd is spot on.The reason I don't think it is Yeadon is because you should be able to see the 180deg right hand berm (after the slight up hill as you describe it) next to the start hill in the photo, and there shouldn't be any houses in the background either.Sorry I can only say where it isn't, not where it is!Andy

Cracked the first one so I painted it with hammerite and used it as my winter training bike. Cant remember the fate of the second one but I can't find it, and I can't find my body armour either which is really annoying.
Andy,Thanks for that, I'm sure it's not Yeadon now that you've confirmed the old track layout. Did you race there BITD?Paul
That berm looks a right state wherever it was!
I think it's Barnard Castle...The last pic defo is - the wall in the background ran down the side of the first straight.jon
