Ross Posted September 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2009 I was just saying what ole said on the clip that he owed so much to england, This was true in terms of his riding days and you can't knock him for the way the GP series has developed and we all love going to Cardiff but in terms of domestic speedway the gp`s have hit us hard. In no way is this though all down to Ole, the way the sport is run over here is at times mindblowing. He wants the GP competition to be as good as it can be just the way he did himself to become the rider he was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidncohen Posted October 22, 2009 Report Share Posted October 22, 2009 Just want to add that was a great clip from YouTube, and it brought a lump to my throat. ITV and Dave Lanning certainly brought some great coverage in the 70's... and what a great crowd, 20,000! I recall one of the quality newspapers of the time, who didn't normally do much speedway, publishing quite a big column on his retirement with the headline "White knight rides into the sunset"...
