THIS Sunday sees the opening day of the 2014 cycle speedway season.

Astley & Tyldesley will take on Bury in a Northern League fixture at Gin Pit, starting at 2pm.

The day’s racing begins with the Division One match and new A&T manager Paul Graham has amassed a stronger squad this season, with three new signings and a comeback rider to add to last year’s squad.

Following this will be the Division Two match, with A&T likely to field a mix of experienced riders and promising juniors.

The day’s racing will be concluded with the Division Three match, as A&T’s squad of under 13s riders start the defence of the league title.

Spectator admission and car parking is free to the afternoon’s racing, which takes place at the Astley & Tyldesley Miners’ Welfare Club, Meanley Road, Gin Pit, Tyldesley, M29 7DW.
