Riders, Sliders & Skiders - 27th July 2019

Weather wise Saturdays Ride & Skid It Speedway Experience Day wasn't too bad first thing , a bit overcast but unfortunately that wasn't to last. Within about 30 mins there were raindrops which turned into a real downpour and persisted down for the whole of the day.


Anyway someone came prepared for bad weather!

There there was a full compliment of 20 riders including four novice riders (1 missing off group photo) and considering the weather everyone got on with it and produced some good riding. And even though I say so myself I think I produced some nice photos even though I was soaked to the skin by the end of the day.

Photos from the days action follow, they should be in a general chronological order, The rider of the day was Nigel Hugo but unfortunately I don't know which rider he is.
