Ryde Taxis have announced that they are the latest Island-based business to back the Wightlink Warriors speedway team in 2016 as the sport returns to the Isle of Wight.
The firm, who are the Island’s largest Taxi company, provide a wide choice of vehicles and services using a range of vehicles from Hackney Carriage to Chauffeur driven private hire vehicles, using licensed and fully qualified drivers and the latest cab distribution technology.
Owner Jodie Younie said:
“Speedway has the potential to be a massive sport on the Island and we are very pleased to help. It was a huge disappointment when the speedway closed a few years ago and we are pleased that Barry, Martin and their team, whom have worked extremely hard, have managed to bring the club back to life. A lot of our drivers and staff follow the speedway and hopefully more and more people will do so this season.”
Speaking of this latest backing commercial director Barry Bishop said:
“It’s a massive boost to the club to welcome Ryde Taxis as a team partner and sponsor of the club. The services they will offer both our own and visiting fans are, I wager, unrivalled in speedway enabling us to reduce the overall cost to visiting fans to support their club as well as Warrior fans who need to cross the Solent.
“This deal is a proud moment for Martin Widman, myself and Team Warrior, a true indication that companies are proud of our club and brand. We would like to thank Jodie, Dan, Martyn and Phil for all their support and help to complete this deal for the club, it’s massive, and thank you – Welcome to the Warriors!”
