Peter leads the way

Peter Kildemand is the first R.E.D Bandits, powered by STS, rider into competitive action in 2026 – and our number one will hit the ground running this weekend.

With Belle Vue’s press and practice day behind him PK heads to King’s Lynn on Sunday where his lines up in the Swindon quartet taking part in fellow Dane Nikolai Klindt’s testimonial against teams representing the Stars, Wolverhampton and Poole.

Then on Monday it’s back to the National Speedway Stadium as our popular number one races in what looks like a typically competitive field looking to lift the Peter Craven Memorial Trophy.

If you want to watch the action then livestreams from both meetings are on sale. Nikolai Klindt Testimonial (cheaper if you buy 48 hours in advance) Peter Craven Memorial 

Peter has some practice laps already under his belt and another looking to get back on a speedway bike will be winter signing Reid Battye who is due to touchdown at Heathrow on Saturday evening after flying in from his native Australia.
