Probably the best collection?













This weekend was the Thistle rally, wet run down, great afternoon spent in the company of good people, it did end up messy though at around 1am. Pictures may follow depending on any bribes offered to keep the photos of the net!!

Before the rally though I visited what has to be one of the best if not the best collection of speedway bikes and memoribilia in the world and its right here on our doorstep. I'll not publicly advertise the collection because as you might imagine I'm not sure if the owner would want it publicised. He opens it up a few days per year and its fantastic, the pictures tell the story, Harley speedway racers, Vincent speedway racers and 2 of whats thought to be only 4 ever built Norton speedway bikes, a rocket powered machine and a great static display. Its all the work of one man and full credit to him for the work and for letting us in to see the bikes.
