As a biker in the 1960s (and still one today) I am possibly one of the culprits referred to in the 50 Years Ago column of July 23 that reported on motorcyclists using Newark Market Place as a race track,

Today’s answer to the problem would be to have speed cameras fixed to all four corners of the Market Place or, to give them another name, flashing money boxes.

I agree with Mr Alker (Slow Down, News Views, July 23). The reason speed indicators are not used is that they work very well but do not, of course, collect money.

I remember it well Roger !! Way back then the bikes made more noise than speed and I also enjoyed a few laps of the market place, did we do any harm ? I very much doubt it. Keep biking and keep enjoying it !!!
