Chris Harris has signed a new deal with Coventry Bees Speedway team.
Harris first joined the Bees in 2004 and apart from loans at Belle Vue and Birmingham has been wih the team ever since.
Harris, whose testimonial, has been arranged for Sunday March 20, 2016, told the Bees website: “It’s great to be back, I’ve been part of the furniture at Coventry for many years and I’m looking forward to being captain again.
“I’ve been discussing my ideas for the team with Mick (Horton), we’ve had many texts going between us, and also Chris Anderson who helps sort my deals out so I don’t have to stress about things!
“I’ve always said I wanted to be riding for Coventry when I’m holding my Testimonial. I feel it would be unfair to hold it there if I was at another club, and I’ve always had such great support from the fans there over the years.
“It’s been a roller-coaster career for me, and it didn’t start off the best all those years ago, but things have got better and better and I felt this year was my best one in Coventry colours.
“Now I want to come back next year and have an even better season, and I can assure everyone that with the hard work being put in behind the scenes if it doesn’t come off it won’t be for the want of trying!”
