This morning we had a great turn out, we welcomed some new riders and it was good to some guys making it down for the first time this year. Happy birthday Jessie!

So we were working on sprinting out of lanes, cat and mouse (the cats behind!) and moved on to sprint trains and lead outs - hard work but looked great fun for the riders.

Back for the first time in 10 years! 

Sponsored by The Green Jersey, the Clitheroe Grand Prix was a challenging 900m course on closed roads around the centre of the picturesque market town.

Tom was there representing Red Rose for his first time racing on closed roads.

Astley & Tyldesley Cycle Speedway Club hosted the second round of the 2016 North West Youth League.

Tom was there representing Red Rose Olympic. He was quite nervous after having never done this discipline before and having watched numerous cycle speedway crashes on YouTube, but he quickly got the hang of it and won his first heat.

Our thanks go to the guys at Astley & Tyldesley after they put on a great event and we really enjoyed the day as spectators.
