Any chance of some background on how the meeting went? It's a pity that there's not more Posts about cyckle speedway on this forum. I suppose it gets its coverage elsewhere?

I think coverage of the recent British Final from Coventry will have some highlights on Sky at some point.

Not only did the Pirates win the speedway Elite League, the Poole/Seaview Coaches "Comets" matched their achievement in the cycle speedway equivalent!

Catch the flavour on this short movie -

Excellent viewing. A great advert for cycle speedway - two well turned out teams, a neat little track, good racing. And di I hear that Sheffield had two Polish riders in their side. I thoroughly enjoyed this - it took me back to what was known as 'the skid kid' era and in the late 1950s I rode a Phillips special and was with long-forgotten London area teams Brockley Boomerangs and Welling Wings, and a couple of sides in east London based in the Beckton area.

It may be Christmas but there's much going on in the world of cycle speedway.

However, this thread needs to be read fully. Some matters discussed in the latest Posts in regard to the trip to Australia which are recorded here may cause concern in some quarters.

I know that Links regarding cycle speedway are not welcomed by all BSF members, but for those who are interested - and I am as a former 'bomb site pioneer' - here's something about the recent indoor events. The photos look good too. Enjoy.

Just heard them mention Cycle Speedway on BBC Radio 2 sports news, and they also said there will be more on the next bulletin at 1850 today, unfortunately I shall be at the Doctors then and will miss it. With luck someone might be around and hear it and give us a full report ! Wakey Wakey Gustix, get the radio on !
