Pick the nearest club from this list and contact them direct, they may not have an old school gate at the moment, but you only need 5 people to turn up to get an OS gate :daumenhoch:

I race at Preston, unfortunatley there are only two old school riders at the moment so it means we have to race the 'big lads' - Tony Fleming, Cal Strickland etc!!

I'll ask him next Tuesday.  I've mentioned it to him before but he didn't seem that interested to be honest.  He just takes the p1ss out of my 'twitchy' short bike now!!

yes mate.  have you not got any old racers you could fetch down the track???  I had to race all the 'proper' lads on Tuesday, to say it was a nightmare is an understatement.  I had Cal Strickland literally jumping over my head.  Ever get that pro class?
