The Kirkcaldy and district motorcycle club still stage road races but no longer on their home turf in "the Park", they staged a reunion come bike show today and Fiona and I took the Nortons up to have a look. It was a day of blethering (Talking) with old friends and looking at the bikes, a grand day out and we even managed to avoid the showers. Mose Hutchison (The commentator) must have been hard up for interviewees as I got knobbled soon after arriving for a few thoughts on "The Park" must admit it brought back some memories. I still like it when I hear people say "you guys raced around here!?" like we were mad (we were) Hopefully it'll become a more regular event in future.
