The link below is to a clip from the Nostalgia Scramble in the UK last weekend.  Fantastic race, well worth five minutes of your time.

Wow...That should be a good answer to those who think that pre '65 is a haven for "silly old farts and their old pieces of shit" (a description a fellow Kevlar overheard at CD6). What about that track too! I'd make a silly old fart comeback to race on that piece of earth.

Don't like the English weather but it does make for great tracks (no dust ever).

First class racing and the bikes are well suited to that track, hey Firko the Cavell bros from up here would not be out of place in that race and at Conondale had the measure of most of the more modern bikes!!!!
