  1. Ian is going to open by appointment in the future. On one of his open days he only received a couple of visitors and it's not worth spending the time to open it. The opening times were 10-4pm and he would get visitors that would arrive at about 3.30pm and then still be there at 5,30pm which made it a long day for him.. He feels that if he opens by appointment in the future then he will not be wasting his time and visitors can have a quality visit. Visitors are very welcome and appointments can be made by telephone. This will enable him to manage the openings better.
  2. I'm not certain to be honest. I know that last time I was talking to Ian about it he said that it was barely worth his while opening it as so few people went on the day. If people are genuinely interested he will open it on other days by arrangement.
  3. The final opening date this year for the fabulous Cinder to Shale speedway collection is Sunday 6th November. Well worth the visit, it's got to be seen to be believed!
  4. Ironic! Taken from Peterborough v Ipswich Updates 30.5.16 Is this a case of "referee's interpretation" ? Heat 06: Cook,Lambert,Covatti,Castagna...60.9. (5-1). 25-13 Line Up: Cook , R/R-Lambert , Covatti , Castagna Comments: ........ Both Witches rode over the centre green and only get a warning, not an exclusion because it wasn't 'dangerous'.
  5. The article can't do it justice. It's the most amazing place! I've been 3 times now and each time I see something I hadn't noticed previously. I'm really looking forward to going again in the summer
  6. I am really sorry to say that due to lack of riders booking in we are having to cancel our training day at Buxton this Saturday 26th September. Sorry for any inconvenience caused to any of the riders already booked in, we are gutted and have not made the decision lightly

These sessions are suitable for beginners (we have bikes and kit to hire), improvers and for anyone who would like some practice track time under the watchful eye of ex Coventry rider Andy Meredith. A Paramedic will be in attendance and free refreshments are available Bookings can be taken via this page. facebook or by ringing Andy on 07816874781
  8. I think some of them stopped team riding when it was said that bonus points were not going to be paid a few years ago. I noticed a big change then. I remember watching a meeting at Sheffield and the visiting team were racing each other....!!

    New To Speedway Help Please

    Andy Meredith also does training schools at Scunthorpe and Buxton and hires both 125cc and 500cc bikes. If you go onto the Training Tracks/Amateur section you will find dates and contact numbers for both Andy's training days and the Scunthorpe training days. Most of the training schools put their information on there. It depends on where you live and how far you are prepared to travel as to which track you decide to go to. Hope this helps

    Oops, sorry about the duff information! I never thought to check it. The first time I went I followed my map. I have never used a SATNAV to get there. I come from the opposite direction and turn down past the Brierlow Bar Bookstore. Thank you fredbogge.
