Wrench'n Ride'n

In the 1950s my Dad attended the bike races at the old Mt Druitt circuit. The circuit was used from 1948 to 1958. Spectator attendance often exceeding 15,000 and was believed to be one of the best motor racing circuits in the country. The course was 3.6 kms long and situated on what is now Whalan Reserve, the Mt Druitt Industrial Area and Madang Avenue Primary School. NSW. Australia. My Dad took these photos. If you know who the riders are please let me know.

Here is part 2 of the photos I took at the road racing meet put on by the Post Classic Racing Association of NSW . To see these click on the image below...

This is a collection of the short videos that I took yesterday at Eastern Creek at the Post Classic Racing Association of NSW race meet. As I use a small digital camera so this video is not the best. But the sounds are just great.

Today I went to Eastern Creek to watch the road racing put on by the Post Classic Racing Association of NSW . The racing was close and great. The smell of racing fuel was like perfume. The sound was like an opera of open exhausts, very loud. I entered my Traveller in the Show and Shine. I was in the Post 80s European Class. But alas I did not win. A beautiful Laverda did. And rightly so too. I voted for it. :-) There were over 80 bikes in the Show and Shine. I took an awful lot of photos and a few videos. So instead of hosting them up on this blog I have put them on a webpage. Part one is up now. To see these click on the image below...
