I have a heavy old steel framed fixed that I commute on. Won't be the best grass track racer in the world but you are welcome to give it a go. I expect you'll want to see what other people have to offer first - anything they have must be better than mine! When is the rally?

Andy, can't offer mine as the hub flange is cracked and I don't think it'd survive the Knavesmire! You could call Harold Welburn (768927) - he was always really keen on grass track. He did have some old bikes he was trying to get rid of (don't know if they were track bikes) before moving house. He may be able to advise if nothing else. Harold's a good guy...

Harold's track bike was about that size but I don't know if he shifted it or not.

Spoken to Harold he's given bikes away, but he did give me lots of advice!
