Bath Street was closed to traffic today as teams of cross dressed persons competed in the first ever Abingdon Drag Racing competition. They had 5 hours to visit 17 pubs and answer a lot of quiz questions. The winners with the most points won a trophy, and it was all done to raise funds for Mind and the Stroke Association.

A stage had been made from scaffold poles in the Poundland delivery area – and groups – some very good – were performing during the day, and evening, outside the Black Swan.

More can be found on the Abingdon Drag Racing Facebook.

Next weekend, on Sunday from 10:30, sees the postponed Dragon Boat Racing.
