Main Man Posted June 2, 2006 Report Share Posted June 2, 2006 Well the Dream Team tour may well have finished but the lads are keeping tabs on the UK scene. Matt Browne is the first of the 2006 side back in the UK and he was in action last night in the 2nd half at Sheffield , riding well and reaching the Final where he finished 2nd . He is at Somerset tonight and is trying to get as many rides as he can. He was due to have been joined by Tim Gomez soon but the 17 year old has just had the results of a MRI scan on his knee and he is now going to have an op on it before he can fly over for the summer , also trying to get as many rides as possible. Will update this when I know when he is coming. Neil Facchini was also planning a trip but he was injured and wrecked his bike the other week in a crash --but when fit may be over. Was also great to to see 2005 Dream Team member Dario Galvin last night at Sheffield with his dad Brian. They are en-route to Poland for the World Under 21 semi at Leszno next weekend and getting in a few British meetings before heading off to Poland on Tuesday. He hopes to be back on the 2007 Dream Team tour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Main Man Posted June 5, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2006 (edited) So sorry Dekker ! But there a lot of fans who followed the Dream Team so if there's news I will continue to post it!! As for Matt --had lunch In Cardiff with him ,along Chris Kerr and his girlfriend and a few others . I know he is at Wolves in the 2nd half tonight and I believe Sheffield on Thursday but will confirm that with him. I know he had a good time --he was certainly "very merry" as we met up with him on the way into the stadium!!
