“Speedway at the Ace” on Sunday 11th August, (courtesy of the “Speedway Museum” and the World Speedway Riders Association ) celebrates the 90th anniversary of the inauguration in 1929, in Great Britain, of the championship competition that was the forerunner of the World Championship.

With special guests Mike Broadbank, WSRA President who rode for Wembley in the 1950s, and Bert Harkins, who was captain of the “Lions” in the 1970s, together with an array of special speedway machines from through the eras, race jackets from all the London Speedway teams, a “Gating Machine”, and a special Wimbledon display, can all be seen at The Ace alongside the cafe’s annual vintage and classic motorcycle day.
 
Raffle prizes up for grabs on the day include a copy of the hard to find 120 page book “Keep Turning Left” by Roy Lambert which, with its great collection of speedway facts, is a brilliant read and is a must for all speedway fans, as well as a pair of tickets to attend the Brighton National Speed Trials, and a carton of Ace Cafe London tea!
