Ipswich 2020


Recommended Posts

Asked on Facebook when fans could look forward to seeing him back in British speedway, Holder told the Australian Speedway Championships: “I definitely want to be racing back in England. Without the GPs it opens up your schedule a lot more.

 

“The past couple of years I have been battling to get hold of a visa.

 

“I finally got one for this year and was planning to start the year.

 

“Because the visa didn’t come in until the last minute at the end of February, I didn’t have time to get bikes and I had nowhere to live in England.

This is an interesting piece from Chris Holder in the Bournemouth echo! I guess there are some things we may never know!

This was taken from the live post-meeting zoom interviews with Chris, Darcy Ward and Davey Watt that followed last Wednesday's Poole Video re-wind meeting. Chris also added that he is now once again living in Ferndown - just outside Poole/Bournemouth but was getting ready to uproot to Torun - just waiting to find out if Poland's 2nd tier (Torun were relegated in 2019!) were operating the same rules and regs as the Ekstraleague..

And what a heat 15. If most of the meetings contained a few heats like that then people would start to take an interest again. Unfortunately not many of today’s rider are of the calibre of Mark and CL or have the confidence to ride against an opposing rider in the knowledge that your competitor will give you racing room. Gate, go and hang on for dear life. Throttle merchants will little craft on bikes that are over engineered for the tracks.
