About The Club

Cycle Speedway was re-introduced to Hull In 1971 after a break of 20 years by Derek Hilton following the re-introduction of motor speedway at the Boulevard in the same year.1972 saw the first cycle speedway league match in and the formation of the league followed the introduction of racing to Hull the previous year when a number of teams were formed and friendly matches run. Initial team competing were: Anlaby Aces,Hull Black Knights, Kingston Cyclones, Springhead Saints and West Hull Bombers.

Tracks used were located at:Livingston Road, Hessle by Anlaby Aces, Barchards railway sidings by Springhead Saints and West Hull Bombers, West Carr Lane by Hull Black Knights and Stonebridge Park, Preston Road by Kingston Cyclones. Today the only track remaining in the Hull area is the current track in use today.
