Tonight (Friday 24th may) is the Fans Trust night at the speedway, we attempted to run this last month so hopefully we get better weather tonight.

If anyone signs up for the Monarchs Fans Trust tonight at the Speedway you will be invited to watch a couple of races from the centre green during the meeting. This is a fantastic experience right in the middle of the action where you get a real feeling of how fast a speedway bike can go. Add to that the pressure of the first Scottish derby of the season it is not to be missed.

All the details for how to join online can be found on our JOIN US page.

On Friday night we will have standing order forms and a PC set up to help people join. All you need are your bank account details and your address and our committee members will be there to help you.

It has been a very difficult year financially for Edinburgh Speedway and at our last committee meeting we agreed to donate another £8,500 to the club.  It was decided that this would give the club the best chance of going forward.  Hopefully by the AGM we will have more information on the future of the club, we will continue to fight for that.  If you have any suggestions to help take us forward, increase our membership or raise extra revenue then we would love to hear from you.

Hopefully we will see you on Friday 23rd.
