JC! Posted July 1, 2005 Report Share Posted July 1, 2005 I got my copy today and I are living in Sweden. I have read all the backtracks and they are so bloody brilliant. I do like this big interviews with the former big stars. The Ivan Mauger interview is very good. Thanks for a billiant mag! I liked to see some interviews with some old Swedish stars as: Tommy Johansson, Rune Sörmander, Varg Olle, Dan Forsberg, Ove Fundin, Göte Nordin, Banger Jansson. Cheers Mikael Johnsson <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Blimey, I live 5 miles away from their despatch and I havent got mine yet! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trees Posted July 1, 2005 Report Share Posted July 1, 2005 Look forward to Michael Lee's interview, such a favourite in my early days at speedway, it annoys the hell out of me that his career was blighted, he was such a fantastic speedway rider I also wish I had been older to really appreciate his skill at the time. My husband remembers Michael at the age of 14 practising round Saddlebow Road, how he used to try all sorts of lines round the track, he was such a natural! But the amount of food poisoning he had during the latter days of his time at Lynn was unbelievable .......... silly article! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shazzybird Posted July 10, 2005 Report Share Posted July 10, 2005 Please tell us your memories of the Glovers - either in their respective roles at Sheffield in the 70s/80s, or (in Carl's case) his earlier brilliance for Boston in the old second division. Maybe you have a question you'd like us to put to Ray or Carl? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Dad has just read the article on the Glovers apparently ............ anyone that knew Unc as a rider would know that he never felt Pressure, he was up for the challenge as much as anyone it just wasn't ever meant to be still 3 goes at Wimbledon in the NLRC and three rostrum placings can't be bad can it? He might have ever won it but he'll always be my Champion even after all these years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neil_L Posted August 31, 2005 Report Share Posted August 31, 2005 Just read this copy last night. All I can say is that my house insurance policy should be void when I read this mag because it's so interesting that if the house caught fire and the smoke alarms went off it I wouldn't stop reading to put the flames out. WRT evitts interview. I remember the Tatum knocking off Evitts British final '88. It started the "booing" of Tatum for yrs to come. Don't think it was dirty riding if I remember correctly. I'm sure there was 3 riders abreast heading down the back straight and something was to give. Hard riding in a British final that was in those days a great day in the speedway yr. To sit in a sell out Brandon crowd as a 14yr old at the british final is something very special in my speedway memories. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
