Thrills and spills – St Annes beach

Standard
Great T-shirt

Sickly perfumed vapes mingle with fusty tobacco and whiffs of cloying spliffs. Sausages, burgers and chips sizzle in hot fat. The Runaway Train chugs around the fairground. Burning fuel belches from the exhaust pipes of revving machines.

Fun and entertainment for all as the Cheshire Grasstrack Club returns to St Annes for the British Sandmasters Racing Championship 2023.

An obliging spectator – but he didn’t share!

On your marks. Get set. Go!

Strong winds and shifting sands make conditions challenging for the competitors. They lap it up.

Go!

Sand-storming racing at its exciting best

Kite-boarders in the distance harness the wind as quads, bikes, side-cars kick up a sandstorm.
