After another incredible Ade Gale Laurels weekend comes to a close, we would like to say a huge thank you to everyone who helped make the event such a fantastic success. ☀️🏆

We would like to say an enormous thank you to our main event sponsor, ex-Poole rider Adam Bardsley of Bournemouth Family Care for his fantastic support of this year’s event.

​They focus their care to enable children and young people to make sense of, and overcome, past experiences and trauma; they aim to establish feelings of safety and security, thus enabling them to gain independent living skills, a sense of happiness and belonging, as well as the ability to dream for the future.

🏁 ADE GALE LAURELS — DAY 2 ROUND UP 🏁

Another glorious day of sunshine welcomed riders and supporters to Harbourside Park for Day 2 of the 2026 Ade Gale Laurels - and with a huge line up of talent including FOUR current World Champions, expectations were sky high.

Thankfully the racing more than delivered. 🔥

🏆 WOMEN’S LAURELS

First up was a truly outstanding Women’s Laurels event featuring current British & World Champion Emily Burgess, current Under 16 British & World Champion Lily Parr, former champions and some of the very best up and coming female riders in the country.

The racing was fiercely contested throughout with the crowd treated to some fantastic action around Harbourside Park.

In the end it was 2022 Laurels Champion Lizzie Rigley-Porter who took a sensational victory with a perfect 5 ride maximum, just edging out Emily Burgess in second place who dropped just one point finishing on 19. 2024 Laurels Champion Lily Parr completed an exceptional podium in third.

A huge thank you to every rider who competed and once again showcased just how strong and exciting the Women’s category is within Cycle Speedway.

🏆 GRAHAM SUTTON PRESENTATION

During the interval we had the honour of celebrating someone incredibly special to both Poole CSC and Cycle Speedway as a whole.

After 52 years serving the club as Chairman, Graham Sutton was presented with Honorary President status of Poole Cycle Speedway Club in recognition of his unbelievable dedication and commitment to the sport.

In a surprise presentation attended by riders from across the years, alongside Graham’s wife and family, the club were proud to present a small token of appreciation for everything Graham has done for Poole CSC and Cycle Speedway over more than five decades.

Thank you Graham for helping make Poole CSC what it is today. 💙

🏆 ADE GALE LAURELS - OPEN

The headline event of the weekend had all the ingredients to produce something special.

With two current World Champions, two current European Champions, the current British Champion and a stacked international field featuring riders from the UK and Poland, this was always going to be spectacular viewing.

And it absolutely delivered.

The racing throughout the meeting was nothing short of incredible, with the revised event format adding even more drama to proceedings.

Current European Champion Ben Mould and Junior World Champion Kenzie Bennett booked their places straight into the Grand Final as the top two scorers from the heats.

Behind them the battle for the remaining two places became an unforgettable drama as FIVE riders finished level on 12 points, forcing a massive 5 rider runoff for the final qualification spots.

An unbelievable race followed:
5th - Fez Langoo
4th - Mark Boaler
3rd - 2025 Laurels Champion Noah Woodhouse
2nd - Polish superstar Dawid Bas
1st - World Senior Champion Lewis Brinkoff

That set up a truly world class Grand Final.

When the tapes went up it was Kenzie Bennett who produced a stunning ride to take victory and claim the Laurels title, making it three consecutive Laurels triumphs after previously winning the Junior title in both 2024 and 2025.

Dawid Bas pushed him all the way for second whilst Lewis Brinkoff completed the podium in third after another superb performance.

💙 A SPECIAL THANK YOU

Many of you will have seen the incredible winners jerseys produced for this year’s event by Myke Grimes at 3318 - Cycle Speedway’s go to shirt designer and supplier.

The jerseys once again looked absolutely outstanding and we thank Myke for not only these fantastic designs, but also for everything he continues to do across the sport helping riders and clubs look amazing both on and off the track.

Many also noticed a special detail included within this year’s jerseys.

This year’s Laurels winners jerseys were dedicated to one of the sport’s true greats, Steve Harris, who we sadly lost earlier this year.

Steve was not only a former Over 60’s Laurels winner, but also a rider for Poole CSC at one stage of his career, and we felt it was only right to honour his memory during this year’s event. ❤️

🙏🏻
Finally, thank you once again to every rider, parent, supporter, sponsor and volunteer who helped make the 2026 Ade Gale Laurels another unforgettable weekend of Cycle Speedway.
