Forgot about this nugget in my screenshot album knowing it would be PERFECT for this thread. And the demonstration that women just don't get bikes or racing. This is the ACTUAL conversation of between the Mrs and myself after the rain out of the first drag night at Willowbank.
I remember seeing the 'wall of death' at the local P & A show when I was about 10. I think from memory they rode Triumph or BSA bikes. They even had girls standing on the seats as they sped around.
I went to the Royal Easter Show in Sydney every year as a kid and remember always checking out the wall of death .... and sharmans boxing troupe A Triumph?
Guy Martin recently set the speed record in a wall of death at 78.15mph, live on tele on a homebuild indian, he took 5g while doing this.
He actually did the final record on a home built BSA rocket 3 tripple. http://www.motorcycledaily.com/2016...aks-wall-of-death-record-by-more-than-18-mph/ Not that I can understand much of what he says.
