Shelsey Walsh Bike Festival September 2015

Post by duke63 »

As mentioned in the events section, i have been to the Shelsey Walsh Bike festival/hillclimb today.

Its the oldest race track in the world that still runs on the original course and also the venue for the first ever live sports TV broadcast back in 1920.

The event is run as a fundraiser for the Blood Bikes charity who deliver blood around hospitals in emergency situations.

The place is in the middle of nowhere in a quite beautiful setting amongst the Worcestershire hills and owned by the Midlands Auto Club.

Lots of various bikes there and a few pics to follow:

And did i mention the strippers?? :D

Just sat down for me lunch and this young lady gets introduced with some raunchy music and starts doing a burlesque dance/strip.

Awesome. (party) And then another girl did another dance later. :)

It was a good day... I was there too...

By the burlesque photo I think we were opposite ends of the event as I was at the top hill when that was underway...
