    Have you ever been to the races?

    Just curious to know how many KBers have ever been to a live motorbike racing event.

    I haven't been to anything live since the six-hour events at Manfeild in the late 1970s. Somewhere I still have some great action shots of the late Roger Freeth.

    My dad used to take me to the Beach races at Levin and Gracefield bike races when I was a kid. Every time. Every race.

    I loved it. Might be time to start taking the little ones to the races at Manfield too I reckon. Especially as I can introduce them to a few of the racers.
    And I to my motorcycle parked like the soul of the junkyard. Restored, a bicycle fleshed with power, and tore off. Up Highway 106 continually drunk on the wind in my mouth. Wringing the handlebar for speed, wild to be wreckage forever.

    Been going to speedway since I was a kid,still go to as many meetings a year as I can fit in.Used to watch MX when it was held on farms,but not in the last 20yrs.Have been going to Pukekohe since it first opened,before that we went to Ardmore,watched street races from the early days(my mother said they used to have bike races at Bucklands Beach where I was born)these days I will only go to watch the classic races - post,forgotten,whatever,if I can tell two bikes apart by sight and sound I'll watch them...a screaming horde of lookalikes doesn't hold my attention at all.
