Wisbech
Dirt Track

 
This venue may have seen more grass than dirt but was known as Wisbech Dirt-Track.  Action took place 1937-1939 and 1946-1948.  Wisbech and nearby Holbeach's riders featured at both venues

Bike #7 has been completely restored.  It is approximately 90 years old.  Bikes like this one would have been in use at this venue between 1937-39.

This JAP with essentially only slight modifications dominated the sport from the 1930s until the 1960s.  The bike would have been in use when Wisbech operated in the late 1940s
