Mablethorpe Sand Racing

It was the last sand racing fixture at Mablethorpe yesterday so we made the trek over to meet up with friend and also try out my big digital camera. I had a slight accident with the camera last week, I dropped it on the floor!! now it feels different when I use it so will maybe thinking about getting a new one especially since I have had this one for at least 3 years so really is getting a bit ancient.





The Race season has now closed until October and the beach will return to the day trippers and donkeys on Sunday mornings.

I suppose it is not bad to watch, however to compete in it was a nightmare. First starting with haveing to pick up hundreds of stones from the beach and paying for the privalige. Waiting arround all day races canceld and at £40 for the day and only getting in 14 laps of sand and water in the face at £2.85 per lap I was not impressed at all. Terrible organisation and not a good day at all but at least the weather was ok.
