Celebration Of Speedway 2014.

Recommended Posts

This year's 2014 Celebration of Speedway will be held in Paradise Wildlife Park on Sunday 16th February from 11am till 4pm.

 

Outdoor and indoor displays of bikes, leathers, trophies, body colours and much much more.

 

Bikes from pre-war to Ice Racing Jawas and modern lay-down GMs. Bikes will be fired up on the hour, every hour, so come and listen to the sound of unslilenced Japs and Jawas and the lovely aroma of Castrol 'R'.

 

The 2014 Peterborough Panthers Road Show will be in attendance.

 

BBQ and bar plus food outlets will be available throughout the Park.

 

Donation of £5 would be appreciated and entry includes the Speedway Exhibition, National Speedway Museum and also the Wildlife Park. The donation will help the WSRA (World Speedway Riders' Association) to help members who fall on hard times and also assist the Museum in purchasing exhibits to put on show.

Plus new interviews with another former Wembley No.1 Bert Harkins, as well as avid Wembley fan and Beatles historian and author Mark Lewisohn.

 

Also, Tony Clarke, Dave Jessup and Lionel Van Praag.

 

Usual price of £16 for a double-disc DVD lasting approx. 4 hours.

 

See you there! Or if you can't make it to PWP on Sunday, the Wembley DVD can be purchased from our website from this Wednesday at http://www.retro-speedway.com

We visited the marvellous museum at Loanhead last week. Quite astounding, an Aladdin's cave of speedway.

 

Congratulations to Ian Paterson and his friends for making this quiet Scottish backstreet warehouse a fantastic place.

A great day out for all the family - interviews with riders, vintage bikes, collectors stalls and of course the wildlife.
