Yes, he ran it successfully for about 18 years until he sold it to, I think two brothers who still run it as Deardens. Two other ex Poole speedway riders living in this area are Bernie Leigh and Tim Bungay. Bernie had a Honda dealership in Totton and Tim has recently restored a couple of Norton Commandos, two Trident 150's, one CB 750 and is currently restoring a third Commando, and regularly rides a tweaked Enfield very briskly!!!
