Pre Speedway English Track Racing


'Evidence of speedway in England well before the cinder sport began in Australia? Well no! The bikes were fitted with Jap engines and certainly look like early speedway bikes. I believe they raced on grass. These old bikes show their bicycle frame roots, the front forks for example are borrowed from bicycle technology.'
