iris123 Posted March 19, 2006 Report Share Posted March 19, 2006 (edited) Think Frigbo is wrong about Mal Bedkober as well.If it's the same rider who rode for Wimbledon and Exeter(early to mid 70s),wasn't he an Australian!

frigbo Posted March 19, 2006 Report Share Posted March 19, 2006 Same thing isn't it??? I think you're right, Bedkober and McKeon were Aussies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chunky Posted March 20, 2006 Report Share Posted March 20, 2006 Jimmy Tannock? Tell me more... p.s. That reminds me...Dick Campbell <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Okay norbold, it looks like I may have made a faux pas... Jimmy Tannock did compete in the 1967 New Zealand Final. I may have jumped the gun a little, because even though it was still predominantly for New Zealanders in those days, so did Doug Templeton. Anyway, here are two more that you forgot : :-) Charlie Blacklock (Harringay), who was killed at Christchurch in 1935. John Garmson, killed at Nottingham in 1931.

colin Posted March 20, 2006 Report Share Posted March 20, 2006 This type of thread never ceases to amaze me So much knowledge out there. I am thoroughly ashamed of my lack of knowledge of speedway. Colin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bavarian Posted March 20, 2006 Report Share Posted March 20, 2006 (edited) Alan Rivett, even though he was (is) living in Queensland, he is a Kiwi and rode for New Zealand in the WTC. Didn't Chris Penny (ex-leigh Adams mechanic) ride for a National League club in the 90's? And for Frigbo, I believe that Clayton Isbel is not a Kiwi, but a West Australian!

He was born in north London. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yes, but he became a naturalised Kiwi and represented them at Test level, famously winning the World Pairs.
