I recently had an e-mail from Malc Seaman, ex R.E.M.E. who remarked that no one on this website seems to have mentioned the Speedway Motorcycle
teams that existed in the Zone.  At the same time he sent me nine photos which I include here.  If someone else who took part in, or new of, Speedway
teams out there and have some photos they would be willing to have included in the ‘Photo Album’, would you please send them to me with the information?
