davidba Posted May 5, 2010 Report Share Posted May 5, 2010 I see that Tyson is the Aussie rep in the under 21 round in Gdansk on 15th May. I presume he's not flying all this way to Europe just for 1 meeting, so can we expect to see him doing the rounds of the second halfs here in the UK shortly after? I know he was planning to come over. Penfold,Begley,Stevens etc are coming over too i believe, are they waiting for our lovely summer to arrive? Over to you BFD!

I know he was planning to come over. Penfold,Begley,Stevens etc are coming over too i believe, are they waiting for our lovely summer to arrive? Over to you BFD! Tyson Nelson is already in the UK, Davidba. He was spotted on Sky on Monday night at Wolverhampton. Along with family friend and mentor, Mitch Shirra. Must be a massive bonus being able to come over to Britain, get in a few second halves and practice time before going to the U21 meet in Poland. Michael Penfold is coming over to ride for the Glasgow Tigers asap. He was tracked by us during the winter (Aussie Summer!). We made a move and got him signed up along with young Nick Morris. It was orginally thought that Michael would be coming over in June or July sometime to do second halves and get experience before slotting into the team for 2011. But then Robert Ksiezak sustained severe knee injuries in a crash at Berwick. Which ruled him out for the season, the Glasgow promotion felt confident enough to fast track Michael's team place to May this year Once again its exiting to see all these new young Aussies come over to Britain, they dont half brighten up the place! Hopefully they can do the same on track too! As there just seems to be an endless conveyor belt of talent coming out from down under! P.S as far as I know, Sam Masters is also riding in this qualifier meeting. So Tyson isnt alone when it comes to representing Australia!

Beeone Posted June 5, 2010 Report Share Posted June 5, 2010 (edited) Tyson did a few laps after the Bees meeting last week, he looked fast and very assured bearing in mind he had never seen the Brandon track before. My friends and myself were very impressed. Edited June 5, 2010 by Beeone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davidba Posted June 28, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 28, 2010 Doesn't look like it will be Sheffield now with them signing Lambert to replace Bugeja who was their only under performing rider.Seems to be dragging on him being set up if he's doing so well in second halfs and is so well though ot by promoters?
