It looks fine now and it hasn't rained here for hours, but there was a fair amount of rain last night. Haven't seen the state of the track, so can't comment on it

Next time you go, ask how they manage to prepare a perfect surface

Where in Australia do you watch your speedway?

Why should you worry?

There were complaints at Somerset over the dust last week.... SOMERSET!!!

Give em a chance. They're probably still in shock

Good guest. He should be up around 13-14 point mark, but I'll miss Branford for the entertainment value alone. We'll also miss out on Branford v Owen round 2

Interesting.... VERY interesting!!

Nico Covatti guests for Anders Mellgren... RR for Kasper Lykke

How d'ya work that out?

Kasper Lykke wouldn't have been at reserve, it's Robin Aspegren at 7 with RR & a guest for Kasper and Anders Mellgren

They need to reduce costs for the riders. I'm afraid not. I just looked at the Speedway Updates Danish section

There are riders who hold down jobs outside of speedway. Edward Kennett & Steve Boxall are a couple that spring to mind.

It was working for Rye House & Mildenhall (Boxall & Armstrong), but guess what, they weren't represented on the BSPA committee, so it was scrapped mid season, because it wasn't working for their teams I must've missed that amongst all the usual trolling nonsense

I did!!! It was a match race at Rye about 6 or 7 years or so ago between Len & Michael Lee. Lee did 4 laps, Len only has to do 3. I think Len won.

Len was a pretty decent rider in the old Provincial League. I think he won the PLRC in the early 60's

Len & Andrew Silver

Cheers Edward

That's what the newsletter said. The 7th is a Monday. I presume they mean the 5th?

Can you confirm the new date for the Bandits v Rockets PL meeting please

You're gonna get the traditionalists that'll throw their hands up in horror, but something drastic needs to be done to save British speedway. No good tinkering around the edges, be bold. The Danes have the right idea, 5 man teams, 14 heats

I've seen a few on YouTube, notably Andrew Silver breaking the track record in the mid 80's.

Of course, sourcing adequate guests would be easier

That would be too sensible

Only went to Berrington once, sadly 4 years or so ago when it was just abandoned and overgrown with weeds. Glad a took a few snaps before they cleared the site completely
