I liked Swindon as I didn't lose there for 2 years.

Favourite though was Hounslow.

Raced the big Kelloggs brum track (Shenley Fields) the one with 6 start gates.. that was fantastic. I remember it was baking hot and very fast

the Grimsby YMCA track was the best track from bitd.

Southbank nr. Middlesbrough... fantastic track. Teesside Airport and Guisbrough had a great atmosphere, but Hartlepool was my fave track, loved it!!!

Buckmore Bat · « **Reply #8 on:** February 19, 2006, 09:47 PM »

I also liked Hounslow and Three sisters (wigan).
Another good track in the south east i liked was Harvington Bowl.

Cheltenham

I remember Cheltenham so well, the team I was riding for at the time had an invite to the opening meeting of the track. I remember it was pooring with rain, and the track was waterlogged and really sticky. One of the longest tracks I raced on.

Won that day though so wasn't so bad.

Is there some kind of auto editing thing with this site? I had had a few by then, but I''m sure I typed Cxcksmoor. Christ I don't think I can even spell glockenspiel! Good thing there wasn't a track in Smuggy c**thorpe, or was there?

you are right zippy poole was down hill, on the first straight had the dolly partons-legendary speed humps!!!!!!!!!! they claimed more victims than harold shipman

Three sisters wigan....coming back soon.

dirtyvans · « **Reply #19 on:** February 20, 2006, 06:53 PM »

Poole was my fave too, very fast and lots of nice jumps, triples at the bottom,

apartantley its now a nature reserve, so cant be touched, has some rare bird living on it or something

high wycome was fast too on a hill again, farnham has some good jumps

Bigplinky · « **Reply #20 on:** February 20, 2006, 07:56 PM »

Powder Monkey (Newcastle) was just about right first three straights were flat to downhillish then the second from last straight was mad downhill with a massive set of doubles and into a huge berm to the finish

2nd fav's Middlesbourgh Southbank (the original 83 track) and Hartlepool Church street for the first tabletop and doubles.
