REBELS77 Posted October 19, 2007 Report Share Posted October 19, 2007 Can we please have an item on Tommy Knudsen,to me the best rider never to be world champion just as good as Erik Gundersen and Hans Nielsen but very unlucky with injuries and very close to being champion in 1986.

moxey63 Posted October 19, 2007 Report Share Posted October 19, 2007 And what exactly do you mean. Watching paint dry is boring. It's as bad as watching grass grow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
salty Posted October 19, 2007 Report Share Posted October 19, 2007 Then can we have one on paint drying? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Surely you can't be referring to Janno? One of the most exciting riders in the past 30 years. Probably got an interesting story to tell as well. Hard to believe it is so long since his retirement.

colincooke Posted October 20, 2007 Report Share Posted October 20, 2007 I last heard about Tommy 2 seasons ago & i believe he was involved in his own business.It's something to do with with therapy for sports injuries using electrical impulses i think.

rami Posted October 21, 2007 Report Share Posted October 21, 2007 I did ask him but he refused to tell me but he did say it was ample for what he needed !!! I agree with the other poster Tommy was in my opinion the best rider never to become world champion - oh and Janno was just class Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyhow, Tommy was an excellent racer and team man who defied the odds to come back after his broken back and completley change his riding style to achieve a similar degree of success. Just edges out Boocock as the Greatest Bee of all time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iris123 Posted September 30, 2008 Report Share Posted September 30, 2008 Bumped into Tommy at the YGT in Skaerbaek.Think that is where he started out and must still live in the area,because Mick and Taylor Poole were staying with him for the week of the competition Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speedibee Posted September 30, 2008 Report Share Posted September 30, 2008 There was a thread on here about Janno not long ago. I think he was importing race tyres for touring cars and was the main supplier for all scandinavian countries . Came about through a connection he made while riding speedway i believe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
