What is the situation with Bradley Wilson-Dean? I thought he rides for the Eagles this year. Why isn't he mentioned?

He has just said about 3 days ago he's over in 2 weeks and the main sponsor is to be announced mid March so what we are thinking is they will both be announced at the same time...... At press and practice If not just before?

He is mentioned in the last line.

'There are four more riders to be named, one of whom will Eastbourne’s seventh team member, yet to be officially named'

If the rumours are right then he is the yet to be officially named rider.

be good if bjarne could get an invite to defend his title..

i wonder if an elite league rider has ever appeared in a national league (tier 3 ) meeting even as a special event ie match-race?

 

Yes, in 2012 both Roynon and Richie Worrall rode in both leagues and quite a few did last year with the fast track.

Best example I can think of is Andy Smith

 

2002 Grand Prix regular

2003 EL rider - Oxford

2004 EL rider - Swindon

 

..but still managed to make a Conference League appearance for Oxford in 2003!

Hi all long time since i had my input :). Went to Swindon yesterday to see the Ben Fund, Wow what a bloody cold afternoon, I watched Mr Tom Brennan Pass the " Wonder Kid Bickley" not only did he do it in the first race he also did it again in the Second Heat as well and lowered his time by 2 seconds, I hope that Bickley is not going down the road of Johnson with all the Bike and sponsors but it could be he is another journey man?

 

Well Done Tom, pleased to see you did the talking on the Track, I was a bit disappointed that to see the photos of Eastbourne having again more practice for all their own riders, but as they have said would Len Silver let Eastbourne practice at Sittingbourne before the first meeting I don’t think so. Richard Andrews looks great in the photos, I think now they have the advantage on all the other clubs with more practice, A big whopping for anyone who goes to Arlington i think at the start of the season, If i am right in thinking that little Tom rides at Eastbourne most weekends and i guess that’s why he has picked up and is going so well hats off to him as a quite lad with a big future, All he needs to do is learn to gate and he will be unstoppable wonder if Mr Mason will help him gate.

 

I found this on Eagles Tv last week, the guy who got run over was lucky it was rider on the bike who was also as lucky a foot to the right and he would have gone out the gate :party: , but its good to see that Arlington is now becoming a motor cycle centre rather than just falling away into dusty surrounds.

Just to clarify.

The track/club at Central Park is Kent not Sittingbourne. Sittingbourne Speedway is a different circuit/club.

Also Planning Consent expressly forbids ANY practice at Central Park, so home riders let alone anyone else have no options in that regard.

Good luck to all at Arlington for what should be a terrific 2015 campaign.

Think you will find it was Connor running over Kelsey.
