Dick Darstadly 0 Posted December 30, 2003 (edited) Peter Collins is the guest of Honour at the Stafford Classic bike show over the weekend of 24th and 25th of April 2004. This is a premier motorcycle show, that I have attended for many years and this is the first time a Speedway rider has been designated the guest of honour role. Quite right and not before time. He will be there giving a talk on both days with some of his machinery on display. Edited March 2, 2004 by Dick Darstadly Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gemini 4,894 Posted December 30, 2003 Wow! Thanks for passing that information on Jim. I feel a visit to relatives in Stafford coming on that Saturday, followed by a trip to Loomer Road. Any idea where it will be held please? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mark cox 1 Posted December 30, 2003 I think its usually at the County Showground on the A518, on the road to Uttoxeter. A nice rural location, with plenty of room. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
norbold 7,053 Posted December 30, 2003 We've been discussing the BBC TV Sports Personality of the Year elsewhere on the Forum. This thread reminded me that Peter Collins came in the first 6 in 1976. The last time a speedway rider made the top 6 I think? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
