Do you know of any pics of Bombers new bikes Taps. I couldn't find any on the Panthers website :t:

Edit... Found one. It does look a bit dangerous, if i'm being honest. Could get handlebars and elbows caught in it. Looks good though.

 

Upright Speedway@UprightSpeedway - I saw @jeffdavies170 photo of @BomberHarris37's new bike. Gotta say I wasn't keen on the overall look so I changed a couple of things with photoshop. It's definitely looking better now

Hi, sorry for a silly question in such tough times. I have been watching old videos on YouTube from the 70's and 80's of the panthers. I remember in about 1979 or 1980 a British championship 1/4 final at the showground that was won by Andy Hines with a maximum. There was a panthers rider at reserve who scored 7 pts from 3 rides but I cannot remember who. Ian barney? Adrian pepper? Adrian smith? And buck? For thoses with long memories,  can somebody tell me who it was? Thank you.

Wow remember all those riders in line up, think i went to same school AMVC as Andy Buck as he was Eye based, does he still live in Peterborough, or did he move to Eastbourne or Scunthorpe when he rode for them

Can you let me know how you've managed to do it. All I can see is recent stuff. Many thanks

Just stick a year and some keywords in the search and follow the links - often find some decent if random stuff that way

If you have a little bit of time and not looking for anything too specific then that should be ok

Enjoy!! :t:

Thanks. I did find the Wills Internationale of '79 this morning, but Panthers is a different kettle fish. I have got Panthers '95 DVD including the infamous Ben Howe, Ronni Pedersen, and Donkey episode. Worth looking at again

speedwayondisc is a good  YouTube channel to search up. Lots of small clips of all sorts

Martin Hepworth has some good content too of more modern stuff

Proper derby stuff that incident :t:

Thanks again. Proper derby stuff, even if dangerous; but there aren't the characters ( and they had to be bad, in a nice way, like Jack Millen ) about nowadays to get the crowds in.

Watched Mildenhall v Peterborough few days ago  Mick Hines got so much stick that day from the fen tigers fans but it didnt help him racing in his tigers colours with a panther on his chest. 

Fish and Chips always made the trips to west row more enjoyable.
