A huge thanks to all of my sponsors for their support this season.
Without the help of each and everyone of them I wouldn't be able to race and compete.
It's been a great season for both of my clubs Leicester Lions Speedway and Glasgow Tigers Speedway
Reaching two finals with both clubs and just missing out was heartbreaking but we will dust ourselves down and go again.
Finally, thanks to all the supporters who have supported me this season.
See you in 2026.

First fire of the season for me, starting to get chilly now. Who else has lit theirs on tonight?? (Need photo evidence 😉)

Hope you all enjoy your extra hour in bed 😴 I know I will!

It is with great sadness we have to announce the passing of Peter Smith. Peter (91) passed away in the early hours of Monday 24th of June after a short spell in hospital. His funeral will be held in Axford church on Monday 15th at 2pm. Therefore, the yard won’t be open on this day.

Peter took over the company along with his brothers from their father and worked tirelessly to get to where we are today, changing from transport to buses to coal and logs along the way. Peter was still delivering logs into his early 80s and then would be seen regularly around the yard. He loved meeting all of his wonderful customers and would always try and wind a few up. Up until the day he died he was still asking how many log orders there were to be done 😂 A big thank you to everyone who would stop and chat to him, it really made his day.
