scampispeedway Posted June 21, 2021 Report Share Posted June 21, 2021 Ulverston to Workington is only 46.5 miles and wouldn't be out of the way on the way north if you took the coastal route. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't know about any amateur meetings soon as there is still a great deal to do infrastructure wise but when Andy and Steve get going they really crack on so who knows... be great for Workington as a town that is for sure...

lbw Posted November 10, 2021 Report Share Posted November 10, 2021 Hope every thing comes together at Northside as I've enjoyed many a trip up to Workington and made some friends with fans from there on the trip to Bydgoszcz in 2000 to see Mark Loram crowned World Champion.

Neila Posted November 10, 2021 Report Share Posted November 10, 2021 Now the secret is out was told track based on Redcar with a bit of belle Vue, maybe a bit early for training this winter, would think (only my opinion ) that a training track and open meetings in 2022 then see how speedway as a whole shapes up for league speedway in 2023, good luck to the guy sorting things out, will have to have a walk down this weekend to see progress 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
