American Hellriders Wall of Death Visit
their Website
hereDerived directly from US motorcycle boardtrack (motordrome) racing in the early 1900s, the very first carnival motordrome appeared at Coney Island amusement park (New York) in 1911. These motordromes with perfectly straight walls were soon dubbed the "Wall of Death. The first known Wall of Death in the UK appeared in 1929 at Southend. The audience views from the top of the drum, looking down. The bikes start in the middle, at the bottom of the drum, and drive up an initial ramped section until they gain enough velocity to drive horizontally to the floor, defying gravity. The wall takes 10 hours to set up and 7 hours to tear down and is hauled on a flat bed trailer. The American Hellriders performed during the 2010 Fire and Ice Bike Rally.
