Belle Vue (Manchester) is the most famous name in the Speedway world. Wherever Speedway bikes are raced you can be sure that Belle Vue will be the most instantly recognised name.

The world's oldest club began its existence on 28 July 1928 at its present home, the Belle Vue Greyhound Stadium in Manchester. Less than a year later the world's first purpose built Speedway Stadium was opened on Hyde Road on 23 March 1929.

Belle Vue returned to their original home at the Greyhound Stadium for their Diamond Jubilee season in 1988. To this day Belle Vue remains the only club to have operated in the top flight every year since the sport came to Britain, including the war years where not even Hitler's Luftwaffe and fuel rationing could stop the racing.

Of course it is the world renowned Aces team that has brought Belle Vue its fame, with almost all of the sports all time greats having donned Aces colours. Riders like Frank Varey, Jack Parker, Peter Craven, Ove Fundin, Soren Sjosten, Ivan Mauger, Peter Collins, Chris Morton and many more.

But Belle Vue also boasts another team, The Belle Vue Colts. Here you will find not greats from the past, but the stars of the future. Riders as young as 15 starting out on a career in the sport.
