    Speedway T Shirts & Canvasses are delighted to announce our new collaboration with Taylor Lanning Photography
    Taylor is the current Team GB Official Photographer and is regularly trackside amongst all your favourite stars.
    Until now we’ve concentrated on the racers of yesteryear but with our new team up we can now offer you all your current favourite riders too. Maybe even a specific shot or angle specifically for you.
    So for any rider - whether it’s a T-shirt, a canvas, a beach towel or even a mug. Whatever your requirement get in touch and we can make it happen.

    Just popped onto the forum today to see how the news has been received. Such sad news after all our memories with Birmingham. I think I’ve only been the once since we finished on the presentation team but we’d intended to come this summer as soon as COVID allowed. 

    I can’t make next Wednesday as we’re away in Scotland but if it’s rained off or if there are further meetings we’ll be down for the next one for sure. Hope all our old friends there are keeping well, so many local tracks to us have already closed like Stoke, Buxton and Coventry so to lose Birmingham would be tragic.

    I’ve genuinely never enjoyed doing the centre green presenting anywhere else as much as I did at Birmingham and that was all down to the fans and the response and buzz on the terraces.

    Fingers crossed for better news soon and if next weeks off or there are further meetings I’ll see you very soon.

    I've just had a set of laydown covers made in Tommy's style, sponsors etc and have just ordered a set of kevlars as per his testimonial year.  Me and my Dad have also invested in a replica bike build from his testimonial year so I'll keep you updated with the progress :)

    With the season about to start we are delighted to have been able to help several riders, teams and schools with sponsorship for 2021.

    These include:

    Ride And Skid It

    Gary O Hare

    Jason Jørgensen

    Ashton Vale

    Jody Scott

    Childsy Check In 

    Adam Roynon

    James Sarjeant

    Aaron Summers

    Joe Alcock

    Save Coventry Speedway & Stox

    Benji Compton

    We now have over 600 designs available and if not of these cover your favourite rider or team then just drop us a message or a reply here and we’ll knock one up for you.

    We have purposely avoided current riders as they tend to have their own merchandise but as you can see have helped support quite a few riders with their designs for this year.

    Enjoy the season when it starts :)

    What percentage goes to the riders?

    We’ve just sponsored Jason Jørgensen in Denmark and are encouraging any other riders to seek sponsorship. They get 100% of all profits and the Speedway Riders Benevolent Fund benefits from other sales.

    You'd think each match would on average be watched by at least 2 people in the same household, in my case 3 of us watched the British Final so it worked out cheap as chips. 

    With the demise of speedway in the UK it might be just what the sport needs.  With plenty of back up material to keep people entertained during breaks etc it makes for a solid few hours of entertainment compared to freezing your bits off on the terraces waiting for an ambulance to come back or watching a tractor go around and nothing else to entertain you. 

    It's sad the sports come to this but I fear it's best days are behind it from a live point of view apart from the odd meeting like Cardiff or a Testimonial.

    I thought the coverage was excellent, thoroughly professional, there was one tapes view that was a bit dodgy a few times but in the main 10/10, credit where it's due.

    I'd love to see Coventry back up and running and would throw in all the bits we used to do presentation wise and centre green wise for free as we did at Leicester to try and keep the name going. But that's purely because I'm a Coventry fan and have had the sport drilled into me from birth to now. The problem is anybody investing in speedway full stop in the UK would be doing it for the love of the sport and for the memories in the Bees case of years gone by. Anyone investing in speedway will only lose there money going forwards, speedway in it's current guise is not where the British public want to spend their hard earned coin.  It's not moved with the times and the terraces are getting emptier and emptier as sadly followers of our beloved sport pass away.  Just be glad of all the memories you have as future one's may be sparser to come by :(
