Who remembers the Hackney training school? I attended almost from the first day borrowing my mate Paul's bike a JAP which I will add I blew the engine on for him, the Jawa followed bought from Terry Busch which Paul snapped in half hitting the gate post at the track entrance. The days of Gary Middleton etc great fun fiolled by Thomo's track at Iwade with straw bales for a safety fence fun day and what is more I am still riding training tracks out on the 30/09/2011 at arena

Hi Steve,

I attended the Silver/Middleton Hackney Training school during the winter of 1971/2. Gary Middleton was certainly a character. I took a friend along, I think it was my second visit and he took some photo’s.

Sorry, about my ugly mug but there are some decent views of the track/stadium The guy pushing me off in one shot was the late Don Smith, the European Trials champion.
