Speedway Called Off For Second Successive Week

For the second week in succession the Wightlink Warriors have had to cancel their speedway meeting.

The event has been scheduled for tomorrow (Thursday) at the Smallbrook Stadium in Ryde.

Co-owner Barry Bishop said:

“Thursday’s meeting is off.

"It is sad news for race fans with two meetings in a row falling foul of the weather, however with the inclement conditions overnight, more rain due today (Wednesday) and again tomorrow we have taken the decision to cancel.

"We never take such decisions lightly as we want regular weekly speedway, but the loss for a rain off for the club would be substantial and we always want our guests to have the very best of experiences with us.

"We are hoping for better luck next week when we hold the Nora British Upright Championship Grand Final.”
