Spotted a gazebo in tesco yesterday for £31 and thought if it did a couple of wet trackdays it'd be worth its weight in gold!

It comes in a decent carry bag:

Its a popup version so no messing with instructions or attaching end A to B etc etc.

With a bit of pulling it out gradually going round each corner and pulling it out bit by bit, one man or woman can have it up like this in under 5 minutes easy.

It comes with guide ropes and ground pegs, although I may come up with a way to tie wrap it to my trailer and then tied to my roof bars on the car on the other side for windy days.

Can you go wrong for £30, I hope not. Go grab one today!


I'm a fan of a certain lincolshire road racer and quality but cost effective helmets, so when my local dealer had the 25% off AGV helmets deal on I grabbed the K3 replica for £130.

It was a little too plain for me so I had a look at his past sponsor decals and got back on ebay to grab some which helpfully matched my trackbike too.
I think it looks about right now.
Its a little noisy at 70+ but I use earplugs anyway so its not an issue with them in. Its comfy and well made. I'd give it 7 out of 10.
