Motorcycle racing took place in Beveridge Park between 1948 and 1988. By 1988 the power and speed of the bikes had out grown the perimeter road around the park and events moved to nearby Knock Hill. This is the track around the midway point at the bottom of the brae. The racers would have been coming towards this viewpoint having descended the quite steep brae racing clockwise around the 1.325 mile track.
