"Great to see Kirky Lane again.

I was brought up in the late 50's and 60's watching Dick Fisher, Bob Duckworth, Jim Yacoby and the great Peter Craven.

I was doing my paper round one morning at the age of fourteen - only to be knocked sideways when I read that Peter had died after his crash at Edinburgh.

I am now a Rye House Rockets fan - and I love this sport. There is no better sporting entertainment around. A few beers, fish and chips and the smell of those bikes - it's enough to make you feel happy.

Look forward to the Aces visiting Hoddesdon in two weeks for a challenge match. We have a very strong side this year and I reckon the Rockets will win either the Trophy or the Premier league.

All the best to all Speedway fans

PS - This is a great website. Well done "

"Looking at those pictures is quite sad when you compare it to Hyde Road."

" It's sad really when you look back to the days of Hyde Rd, but hey let's not look back but forward instead. Hopefully the new ownership will go ahead, the crowds will flock back, which will bring in much needed revenue to improve the facilities. I can feel the good old days coming back again. COME ON YOU ACESSSSSSSS"
