January 25, 200916 yr looks great fun bit to far for me 280mile round trip from here with no heated grips,they did the same thing at ainsdale beach near southport years ago must see if they still do or brave it to mablethorpe
January 25, 200916 yr Author As far as I know, Mabelthorpe is the only place in the UK where beach racing takes place, I know Weston has a beach race but that is just once a year. One thing, the machines are quite interesting......... Armstrong, complete with lights and number plate !! They also have a race for juniors.
