The Ace Cafe Then and Now

Klappentext The book opens with the first beginnings of bike racing in the London area -- at High Beech -- in 1928 and continues with the pre-war history of the North Circular as one of Britain's new 'arterial' roads, and the establishment of the Ace 'road-house' at Stonebridge Park in 1939. Zusammenfassung During the 1960s swarms of motorcyclists roamed along London's North Circular Road in nightly "burn ups". Their pit stop was the Ace Cafe at Stonebridge Park. This is their story as told by the boys who raced and the policemen who chased, woven against a background of contemporary reports.
