I wish Zenon all the very best. I recall the spectacular crash (captured by Mike Patrick) during the Australia vs. Poland Daily Mirror Tournament encounter at Cowley. My personal favourite, however, was Marek Cieslak during his first year spent at White City. Some of his passes from the back on the notoriously flat track were something to behold!

I remember Svein Kaasa when he rode briefly for the Oxford 'Rebels'. A sad loss as I believe he was starting to show some form when he joined Glasgow. RIP

Speedway missed a golden opportunity in the late eighties when John Berry put his name forward to administer the sport. He would have been an ideal choice put he soon pulled out as he felt that he wouldn't have got the necessary backing.

Very sorry to read of David Ashby's recent death from cancer. I remember watching David ride for Swindon during the seventies with his brother, Martin, as well as for Milton Keynes. RIP
