Alan Bellham's Speedway Service




On the way back from riding Boastie's bike at King's Lynn I called in at Alan Bellham's Speedway Service in Terrington St Clements. This place is astonishing. It looks like a sex shop from the outside. Inside there are rows of brand new Jawa complete bikes, rolling chassis and glass cabinets full of parts and riding kit. And there's fantastic art on the walls.
Alan is all business. You don't go in to browse. It's way off the beaten track. You go to buy parts. Boastie, his Dad and Andy were there too. Every UK short tracker needs to know this place. They stock good lanyard killswitches, hot shoes, a variety of speedway boots...
I dropped off my hot shoe for hard-facing. Looking forward to picking it up and having another snoop around.

I believe it was made by Corgi as part of the
Whizz Wheels series?

WoW... Great attention to detail, looks as if you could just jump in and drive it away!

Without doubt, the best logo/sign I have EVER seen.
