eM_Pe 49 Posted April 8, 2013 I hope this is the right place for such a topic. I'm a speedway fan from Poland currently living in Cambridge. I was wondering if there were any fans around who might occasionally have an empty seat in their cars driving to Peterborough or King's Lynn (or others) for some Elite League speedway... Another nice occasion to meet would be watching SGP somewhere in town (if it's actually shown anywhere). Thanks in advance for any useful feedback! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
25yearfan 476 Posted April 8, 2013 Cambridge is Mildenhall Fen Tigers speedway territory! Mildenhalls the nearest track to Cambridge and I know a fair sprinkling of Mildenhalls impressive crowd figures are from that neck of the woods! Mildenhalls also the best racing in the East Anglian area and also the cheapest! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

eM_Pe 49 Posted April 8, 2013 Thanks for all the replies guys! I'm still hoping for some EL/SGP "beachhead" in Cambridge but the idea of looking at Mildenhall sounds really fun. I haven't really considered National League before and indeed Leszno where I come from is a very fast track where every other week world's top riders come and do magic, but hey... I've always enjoyed visiting Rawicz which offers a short and technical track, probably as close as it gets to the British ones in Poland. It's still a bit too far for a cycle ride though so I'll keep looking for a good soul with a largish car Thanks again! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
25yearfan 476 Posted April 10, 2013 Like I said before, Mildenhall speedway is the best racing in East Anglia regardless of the fact they are in the 3rd Division! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks in advance for any useful feedback! hello another option for you if you dont have a car is to come to Rye house at 7pm on Saturdays - I know its not elite racing but it is another track you could get to from Cambridge and the station is only 2 mins walk from the stadium Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
eM_Pe 49 Posted April 14, 2013 Thanks startline sid, I shall have a look at Rye House too! It's indeed a pretty convenient place to get to. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
