Sandie Posted August 14, 2010 Report Share Posted August 14, 2010 Another rider to join the three confirmed so far (Castro, Burmeister, John Marquez) is 23 year old Tyson Talkington. Talkington has been riding speedway for only 12 months and has rapidly risen to a very good First Division rider. He is very ambitious and I am glad to welcome hium to the team. He has much racing experience in moto cross and Stock Cars and got his first taste of team riding in a Pairs meeting at Victorville last week and made a fine accounting of himself. Here is his profile from the speedwaybikes website, especially for Sandie and the other drooling females - you know who you are! http://www.speedwayb...ntalkington.htm Quite acceptable thank you Steve! And even better that he keeps PIGGIES - which I hope will be looked after whilst he is over here! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rami Posted August 14, 2010 Report Share Posted August 14, 2010 We will race the Heathens anywhere, as many times as they want. We will still beat them every time! In your dreams Steve !

Would seriousley be great to have a re match with you guys but at monmore this time - 100 quid says the heathenos do you this time If the Heathens aren't running scared the bet is on, but only if you agree also to wear a Wolves Speedway hat for 24 hours after the race if you lose!!! Note if the team I want to bring is the team that comes I predict a nice American win!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidba Posted August 15, 2010 Report Share Posted August 15, 2010 Steve,are you going to be coming to a track nearer to London than Plymouth?? I know you cant go into specifics yet,but Plymouth too far to beg a lift to and train prices are already too high for October so i'm praying you will get a meeting somewhere a bit nearer than St Boniface.

Parsloes 1928 nearly Posted August 15, 2010 Report Share Posted August 15, 2010 Steve,are you going to be coming to a track nearer to London than Plymouth?? I know you cant go into specifics yet,but Plymouth too far to beg a lift to and train prices are already too high for October so i'm praying you will get a meeting somewhere a bit nearer than St Boniface. You can try!!!! Problem might be weather forecasts (my pet hate!) - being October, they MAY predict rain. Not like beautifully dry August, eh..! NOT! Like this last Friday: WOULD have done down to the SBA to support the Buccs but the forecasts for both there and Weymouth were a little dodgy. So opted to do King's Lynn (with Lakeside a reluctant 'back-up'). Both meetings out west went on ; KL and AE flooded out!! Grr!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveEvans Posted August 15, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2010 A fixture has been agreed close to London - we just need to confirm our team strength so the club in question will make the date official. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tough luck, but at least US team appear to be coming to our neck of the woods,NL 4Team+NLRC both at Rye House and Lydd have another meeting, so just need Team Viking to schedule a meeting within an hours drive of East London and there will at least be a positive end to the viewing season!!

21st century heathen Posted August 16, 2010 Report Share Posted August 16, 2010 I've been trying to get this set up but not much communication coming back from the Heathens camp. Running scared comes to mind!!! Or perhaps the Heathens camp have more pressing matters than a piffling challenge against a bunch of wannabes. We will race the Heathens anywhere, as many times as they want. We will still beat them every time! Hope our boys are reading this. They're dialled in quite nicely at Monmore now. In five official fixtures at Monmore we've averaged 57 points per meeting. Bring it!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveEvans Posted August 16, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2010 Its okay Steve - leave him to me!!!! Delegation is everything! One of last years team was heavily reprimanded in Heathroe Airport when caught wearing Heathens attire! He was soon forgiven after he pointed out he won heat 15!

SteveEvans Posted August 17, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2010 (edited) Austin Novratil is the fifth rider to be named to the 'Penhall Museum' American Touring Team's October UK Tour. Novratil was sensational last time over and his highlights included a paid 17 at opening night at Plymouth and winning heat 15 in the showpiece event at Dudley. He was 2nd in the Victorville Track Championship and also runner up last week in Industry. He joins Tyson Burmeister, Eddie Castro, John Marquez & Tyson Talkington as definite starters. http://www.speedwaybikes.com/rw/uaustinnovratil.htm Edited August 17, 2010 by SteveEvans Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greyhoundp Posted August 17, 2010 Report Share Posted August 17, 2010 Steve definately want to see you at Monmore, so we can get our revenge, keep pushing CVS for a date, i could see a Sunday meeting at Monmore, even if its a double header, that would be a tremendous afternoon early evenings entertainment, with a fantastic crowd...

21st century heathen Posted August 17, 2010 Report Share Posted August 17, 2010 Austin Novratil is the fifth rider to be named... He was very good value at PB back in the Spring. I reckon there's a fair few Promoters that will be very happy to have the chance to take another look at him with a view to seeing how he progresses over the next year or two.

SteveEvans Posted August 17, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2010 Pleased to announce our 6th rider added to the team, and for the first time since 2006 we have an East Caost rider. 19 year old Mike Buman joins the team. He came out West two years and rode the Costa Mesa Nationals. He has been making good progress on the New York scene and is welcomed to the squad. His profile is here http://www.speedwaybikes.com/re/umikey_b.htm It is looking very possible that an 8 man squad will travelling. There are a number of options being looked at for the remaining spots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
