That's a good point Dave.
To verify this date, we need to go on to www.duncannorvelle.com and find out from his tour archives when he did a gig there. He's taken time between rehearsals to watch the bmx action (pic 7, far right).

Great pics..
Not one over weight kid in the pics..

Loved these guys BITD .. they were our ‘real’ heroes ... anything they did to their bikes or the tricks they did we wanted to copy!
Dale Holmes has just done a podcast with Mike Pardon, if anybody’s interested?
Cheers for posting these up Tim, I’m wondering once again if we could potentially use some of these for our “We Were Rad” Book ?

'83 Morcambe.
I'm late to this thread and was looking at the pictures and thinking this was the Morecambe/Middleton Pontins, a couple of the older buildings where you can see the see inbetween are still there.
5 mins by car from my house as a child but sadly am pretty sure I wasn't there.
