Australian Speedway History Web Page Update

Recommended Posts

The Australian Speedway History page on Craig Fordham's Australian site has been updated with two new short speedway stories.

 

The first, "We Start Them Young in Queensland", is set during the 1927-28 Australian season and is about a five year-old boy, Teddy Cloake. His memories of that season lasted a life-time. He mixed with future speedway legends such as Sprouts Elder and Billy Lamont. Teddy appeared on the racetrack in two Australian States during that season.

The other story, "Ronnie Moore and the Dare Devil Moorsons", mentions a few episodes from Ronnie Moore's early days in both Australia and New Zealand.

Chapter Two of The Jack Young Story is now on Craig's site.

 

Jack's continuing development as a rider during the 1947/48 and 1948/49 Australian seasons is covered, as is the offer he received in late 1948 of a trial for Second Division British club Edinburgh.
