Fiskerton Practice Track




I made it over to the Fiskerton practice track when Stoke had been cancelled. It's a great little practice track, totally hidden from the road. It's as grassroots as it gets, but, by gum, it's fast enough for a short track. Scottie was there blooding his lad Flynn. A few bike troubles slowed him up, but he got the hang of it. And he wore his favourite T-shirt and his homemade hot shoe.

This is Les squealing the tyre of his almost standard XS650 into turn 1. Jason pointed out that if he did that move on that old Yam into the car park of a bike meet it would go down in history.

Nice toolbox

This is Stew's bike. When I asked him why he was called The Dogger he just laughed. Now I really want to know. (For our foreign readers, Dogging is the quaint British hobby of going to a deserted car park and having sex while people watch, or just going to watch. The name comes from the excuses people use when the police turn up 'I was just walking the dog when I saw this going on, officer'.

Facilities at Fiskerton? Bring your own.
