Who in there right mind would want to travel across Africa on a motor bike! Oh and by the way that person is a female! Well for certain I wouldn’t fancy it, but former Hackney Hawk Katie Mason has other ideas! That’s in the future more on that to come soon.
Kate has never really lost the bug for speedway and in the last few years has rebuilt her bike and is raring to go. She’s recently been at ‘two fat ladies submarine’ day at Scunthorpe, showing ‘girl power’ as a female coach, [not the big ones that carry passengers either] along with five other male rider coaches. Make no mistake she’s an accomplished motor cycle rider and sport mad is Kate.
She’s also done a 10k run in aid of the British Heart Foundation and another run recently in aid of breast cancer.
We shouldn’t be surprised at any of this really should we! Kate reached national level at both BMX riding and motor cross in her teens and of course none of this is new to Kate. She competed in a very much male dominated sport.
Kate is a trained nurse and decided to return back to nursing recently and is now a children’s nurse in the north east. If you fancy sponsoring Kate I’m sure she would be delighted for any help no matter how small. Kate can be contacted by e-mail or facebook.

Katie Mason was one of the few female Hackney Speedway Hero's! In a sport dominated by men, Kate had a desire to be a speedway rider and unlike many of us she succeeded against all the odds. Beating the boys, ask several riders at the time what it was like to be beaten by a girl! Kate has not quite given up here dream, she still has a bike, standing proudly in the garage and if it was a trophy would no doubt be standing proudly on here fireplace!
