ONTWOMINUTES

Steve schofield wasn't the tallest of riders.

Tom BACON , vital for pig's in blankets.

Also helps to have a good group of track volunteers to help with the air fence's that have to be put up and taken down before and after meetings - newcastle have a particular good group that I know of.

Nice to see positive things happening at newcastle , at least one club has news to spread , alot of other clubs are very quiet. ( Btw , I'm really pleased for archie's dad and Dave rowland on archie's great achievement)

He lives about ten miles outside of leicester now. Anyway , he's always been a fans favourite wherever he rides.

Close to home?

Looks like oxford to me

Adam always gives 100% , he's a great team player even if he's having a bad meeting , I really hope he keeps away from injury .

Are you sure it's not his dad that's the track curator at perry bar ? Unless Adam has recently been appointed that post too ? I might be wrong - I know Chris has done it for a couple of years now.

Robbo was but he now works for a company doing fire wall protection around the midlands.

Scott robson , I think he does loft conversations in and around sunderland.

Kevin little , car and van sales and garage in kelso

It just shows how much Paul wants Archie to achieve his speedway dream , I would imagine he ( possibly with some sponsors help ) spent a few quid on fuel etc doing those three meetings.

It could be the right circumstances for Ben barker to do very well . Like has been mentioned , alot of the would be favourites have had very little track time and the younger riders in the field might let the occasion get to them. If Ben's bikes are reliable and he races with (in his own words) the win it or bin it attitude then he won't be far off . Hoping everyone has a good day and stays safe.

It would be nice to see the thompson twins as meeting reserves , in a somewhat non conventional lineup then why not ? They've been riding probably more than most this season.

Yes , his brother has been with him a long time . He used to ride a few years back .

Correct on both , Tony swales always prepped a very good track - wonder wheel followed by some sort of wire fencing to scatter the shale material evenly . I don't think many tracks were as good.

Cleveland Park was located almost partly under the flyover on the south side of the water . I remember as a child seeing on a few occasions car's pulling up on the exit of the flyover to have a quick watch of a heat or two before the Copper's turned up to move them on lol. If you look for it now it's five-a-side football pitches ( the cage type).

At 11.36 into the footage the boarded up window to the left of the blue door is about as near to Charles's office as you could get ( I know his wife always sat in there) to the best of my knowledge. I know the management office was always in that area.

Probably due to the choice of scunthorpe being the only other option available in the current situation , and as far as I know Leicester has been available for hire seven days a week for quite a few years now. Obviously not available if any pre arranged event has filled the date already.

Lee smart retired for the second time in his career

I think pinny is referring to Michael Lee and Frank smart ?

Didn't Danny bird live somewhere like Penzance when he rode for Glasgow and fly up for meetings ?

I think your thinking of the wrong Stefan neilsen - the one on this video is the ginger one currently still riding . He can win races but I'd say he's not the most in control rider I've ever seen.

Robbo was very lucky to survive that crash , his bike was left hanging from the top of the stock car fence. He spent nearly four months in hospital .
