dantodan 314 Posted June 3, 2004 (edited) The English Dirt Track League started in 1929. So Speedway Fans have its birthday to celebrate. I am trying to do something special at Brough Park this year and so are the Promoters (Rumour has it! Kenny Smith is our CL team Manager he is in the Vet Speedway Riders Assoc. I know, like me, he wants to put on a classic bike show. I have beeen making efforts to get local musuems and Classic bike clubs interested and I will continue to slog away looking for sponsors, publicity and what have you! Newcastle's event has to be special. So mark this one in your diary, end of Aug early Sep big do on Tyneside! so don't miss it. Book up for a weekend on Tyneside come to the Speedway and maybe the museums, the drink yourself legless in the party capital of the world.

dantodan 314 Posted June 28, 2004 (edited) I would like to hear from any ex- Newcastle Riders, you are invited to the Jubilee Meeting at Brough Park. Yes Newcastle Ex-riders means Brian Craven, Brian Brett, Peter Kelly, Ivan, Ole, Anders, The Owen Brothers, Jesper Olsen, both Pedersens and Kenneth Bjerre as well as the great team men we have had like Mike Watkin, Russ Dent, Robbie Blackadder, David Bargh, Rod Hunter, Alan Emerson, Bobby Beaton et al. The invitation is out, so come on guys get talking to us. Brough park is going to have the Jubilee event that other tracks will envy. I also want to hear from any supporter who was at any of the 4 Tyneside tracks Brough Park, Gosforth, Whitley Bay and Greenside, from 1929 through to the outbreak of WW2 so if your dad or Grandad is old enough and they would like to be at Brough as guests of honour please get in touch.
