deanr1 Posted March 6, 2009 Report Share Posted March 6, 2009 Back in around 1993 the great Hans Nielsen did a training day at Coventry, i was lucky enough to go along as a 13 or 14 year old and had one of my first goes on a 500 at my beloved Brandon. It was without doubt the best day of my speedway life and i even got to do a few laps on Hans' bike and scare myself to death! Thanks Dad for taking me!! Coventry has never been the most accessible track for young riders so it was a priviledge to ride there as a lifelong fan, i'm nearly 30 now so unlikely to ride there again! I'm wondering if any other forum members were there that day, and if anyone went on to ride professionally? I remember Lee Woodgate was next to me in the pits and i have a few pics of us, i think Scott Kirton was there too who rode for the juniors but did anyone go on to become a pro? If anyone has pics of the day it would be cool to see them, i have a few in the loft! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
