Ulster Speedway |
|
(Windsor Park) |
|
Ulster Speedway, Windsor Park, Donegall Avenue, Belfast, Northern
Ireland |
Speedway was restricted to 1928. The Venture was beset with
problems as the promoters were refused a racing permit and all of
the riders taking part in the 29th September 1928 unauthorised meeting were fined
£1.00 |

Smoky shows the local lady how to broadside a bike. Her bike
looks a little on the heavy side for motoring sideways around the
bends, perhaps she enjoyed the occasion! |

Two of the better bikes in use in 1928 which would likely have
featured in races at Windsor Park. A Harley Peashooter
closest to the camera and a Douglas taking the faster outside
line. |
